Call Waiting ID

Thank you for choosing the Call Waiting ID feature. Below are the features and instructions to use Call Waiting ID.

Call Waiting ID provides you with the convenience of knowing who is on an incoming call while talking to someone on an existing call. This allows you to screen the incoming calls and attend to the ones that have the highest priority at that time. You will need a display unit for Call Waiting ID.

To use:

  1. You will hear a call waiting tone when an incoming call is waiting to be answered. Then look at your caller ID display to find out who is making the incoming call. At this point, you have the option of answering the new call, or ignoring it.
  2. If you want to answer the new incoming call, press and release the Flash Key to put your existing call on hold and answer the new incoming call.
  3. If you want to switch between callers, simply press the Flash Key again.
  4. To remove one person from your line, simply hang up.

To turn off Call Waiting ID before placing a telephone call:

  1. Press *70 and listen for three short tones, after those tones you should hear a regular dial tone.
  2. Dial the telephone number of the person you want to call.
  3. People calling you during your call will hear a busy signal.
  4. When you are finished with your call, hang up, and Call Waiting ID will be restored.

To turn off Call Waiting during an existing telephone call:

  1. Press the Flash Key to put your current call on hold.
  2. Listen for three short tones, and then you should hear the regular dial tone.
  3. Press *70.
  4. Press the Flash Key to return to your current call without any more interruptions.
  5. When you finish your call and hang up, Call Waiting ID will be restored.
