CALL WAITING
Don't want to miss an important call but still need to be able to talk?
While on a call, Call Waiting alerts you with a special tone indicating that another call is waiting. If there is no response to the first signal, a reminder tone will follow ten seconds later.
To use Call Waiting
- When you hear the special tone signaling that someone else is trying to reach you, press the switchhook/flash for one second to place the first call on hold and answer the second call.
- To return to the first call, press the switchhook/flash for one second again, leaving the second call on hold. You can alternate between the two calls in this way as often as you like.
- To end either call, ask one caller to hang up, then press the switchhook/flash. This returns you to the other call.
To cancel Call Waiting
Call Waiting may be temporarily canceled before placing the call.This is referred to as "Cancel Call Waiting" or CCW.
- Lift the receiver and listen for a dial tone.
- Dial *70 before placing a call (1170 for rotary dial users).
- Dial the number you want to call as normal. CCW is automatically terminated after each call.
