Description: A special tone alerts you to an incoming call when you are on the phone: the caller hears only a normal ring. You can then place your current call on temporary hold and answer the new call.

Call Waiting

Here's how you are alerted by Call Waiting

• When you're on the phone, a "beep" tells you a second call is waiting. Only you hear this beep.
• If you don't answer the second call within 10 seconds, another "beep" reminds you it's there.
• The second caller hears only the normal ringing tone.

To answer the second call:

• Depress the switchhook for about one second to place your first call on hold.
• You are automatically connected with the second caller.

To alternate between calls:

• Depress the switchhook for about one second to alternate between calls.
• Each of your conversations is private and cannot be heard by the other caller.

To end either call:

• Simply hang up.
• Your telephone will ring.
• When you answer it, you'll be connected with the other caller. The call you discontinued will no longer be on the line.
