Three-Way Calling
Three-Way Calling lets
you add a third party to
an existing conversation, whether it is local or
long distance.
To add a third Party to your conversation:
- Depress and release the switchhook. This puts party A on hold.
- You will hear three bursts of dial tone, then a (normal) steady dial tone.
- Dial party B, the third person you want to add to the conversation.
- When B answers, depress and release switchhook to bring party A back.
Your three-way connection is now
established.
- If you get a busy signal or no answer when calling party B, Briefly depress and release the switchhook. This will stop the call to B and reconnect you with A. If busy signal or ringing
continues, press the switchhook again.
To disconnect:
- Hang Up. This breaks the three-way connection.
- If party B hangs up, you can continue talking with A or if party A hangs up you can continue talking with B.
- You can also disconnect B by briefly depressing your switchhook. Party A will remain on the line.
- You can now add a different third party by repeating steps 1-4.
