Use this feature to activate call waiting. When you are on a call and a second intercom, transferred or outside call comes in, you hear a beep to indicate you have a second call waiting to be answered. Press the switch hook (or Recall or Flash button, if available) to put the current call on hold and retrieve the second call. To return to the first call, press the switch hook again.

This feature is distinct from the local telephone company’s Call Waiting feature. If you use this system feature, do not use your local telephone company’s Call Waiting feature.

The Call Waiting tone is not repeated.

Call waiting is only supported for single-line telephone extensions. Do not assign Call Waiting to extensions that have fax machines, credit card scanners, modems or auto attendants because the call-waiting tone interrupts the data connection.

You cannot transfer either party connected by call waiting, conference in additional parties or use feature codes while both calls are active.

Transfer-return, group call distribution and hunt group calls are not considered incoming calls for this feature.
