2.4 Holding Calls
This feature allows you to temporarily disconnect from a current call
yet retain it so that it can be retrieved. When you place a call on hold,
you are free to use your telephone for other calls or features and then
return to the held call. At a multiline telephone, you can put a call on
hold manually, by pressing the HOLD button, or automatically (if
programmed), by pressing another line button.
You can place a call on hold in either an exclusive or non-exclusive
manner. With a regular or non-exclusive hold, you can pick up the
held call at your telephone or another user can pick the call up at a
telephone sharing the held call line.
• To place a call on hold (non-exclusive),
—PRESS HOLD. The light above your line button begins to blink.
• To retrieve a held call,
1. PRESS line button of the held call (with winking green light), OR
PRESS TAP.
2. SPEAK toward telephone OR LIFT handset if privacy is desired.
Note: Unless you use your HOLD button the scroll through the
calls on hold, TAP always retrieves the last number placed on
hold, regardless of whether you have line appearance for the line
on which the call is holding.
