Consultation / Hold
The “consultation/hold” feature allows you to place an ex-
isting call on hold. You then may consult with someone
else at your workplace or dial a second call. The party on
hold does not hear the second conversation. Once you
have finished the consultation, you can return to the origi-
nal connection.
