In 2-line mode, you can turn the caption feature on or off at any point
during your telephone conversations. Simply press the
button to
turn the feature
ON or OFF. When the red light above the
button is
lit, you will receive captions. When the light is off, the call will not be
captioned.
When you turn captions on in the middle of a call, there will be an initial
delay of at least 15 seconds before captions begin as the phone connects
to the Captioning Service.
IMPORTANT: If an incoming call was dialed through the toll-free
Captioning Service, you will receive captions but will not be able to turn
captions off during the call.
For more information about CapTel features and menu options, please
refer to the CapTel user manual.

With 2-line CapTel, you can use enhanced telephone features, such as
call-waiting, that you may have purchased from your phone service.
To use call-waiting during a call:
1. Listen for a beep (or read
TONES in the captions) during a conversation.
It may indicate an incoming call.
2. Press the button to switch to the second call (you will receive
captions of this call as well).
3. Press the button to return to the first call if appropriate.
NOTE: If line 2 has a call-waiting option, you should enter a call-waiting
block prefix in the CapTel menu. This will prevent an interruption of
captions. You will still receive call-waiting on line 1, the line that
carries your conversation. Please refer to the CapTel user manual for
instructions on blocking call-waiting.
