15 Telephone Operation
Note: If you hear a high-pitched noise from
the base’s speaker, the handset and the

FLASH performs the electronic equivalent of
a switchhook operation for special services,
such as Call Waiting.
For example, if you have Call Waiting, press
FLASH to answer an incoming call without
disconnecting the current call. Press FLASH
again to return to the first call.
Note: If you do not have any special phone
services, pressing
FLASH might disconnect
the current call.

entries (see “Entering a Pause” on
Page 16).
