Three-Way Calling
To add a third person to the call:
- Press and quickly release the "switchhook" to place the first person on hold.
- Listen for the dial tone.
- Dial the third person's phone number. (If you have speed calling, you may dial one of your codes instead)
- When the third person answers, you can talk privately before making it a three-way conversation.
- To make the three-way connection, press and quickly release the "switchhook". You can now talk with both people at the same time.
To cancel the three-way connection:
- If the third person did not answer or you wish to disconnect them, just press and quickly release the "switchhook". You'll be reconnected to the person holding.
- Or if either of the two people hang up, you can continue talking with the remaining person.
To end the call completely:
- Simply hang up.
Note:
The "switchhook" is the button the handset pushes down when you hang up the phone. Some telephones have a Link or Flash key you can press instead.
