Using Hold and Resume
You can hold and resume calls. When you put a call on hold, the Hold icon appears next to the
caller ID and the corresponding line button flashes green .
If the Hold Reversion feature is enabled for your phone, a call that you put on hold reverts back to
ringing after a certain period of time. The “reverting” call remains on hold until you resume it or until
Hold Reversion times out.
Your phone indicates the presence of a reverting call by:
• Alerting you at intervals with a single ring (or flash or beep, depending on your phone line setting).
• Briefly displaying a “Hold Reversion” message in the status bar at the bottom of the phone screen.
• Displaying the animated Hold Reversion icon next to the caller ID for the held call.
• Displaying a flashing amber line button (depending on the line state).
