Call Waiting
You can use your phone without missing calls. A special tone alerts you to a waiting call; the person calling you hears normal ringing.
When you're on the phone, a special tone tells you a second call is waiting. Simply press and quickly release the "switchhook" on your telephone. Your first caller is automatically placed on hold, while you're connected with the 2nd caller. To alternate between callers: simply press & quickly release the switchhook. While you talk with one caller, the other will automatically be placed on hold. Each conversation remains private.
To end either call, hang up. Your phone will ring and when you answer, you'll be connected with the remaining caller.
