Placing A Call On Hold Exclusively (Exclusive Hold) - Panasonic KX-TA308 Operating Instructions Manual

1.5 During a Conversation
PT • During a 5-party conference, you cannot use this feature.
PT • With outside calls, you can put multiple calls on hold. However, with intercom calls, you
can put only one call on hold. One way around this is to use the Call Park feature. See two
pages ahead.
PT • If a call is placed on hold for more than the programmed time, ringing or an alarm tone will
be heard (Hold Recall/Hold Alarm) and the following displays will be shown. While the
alarm tone is being sent, the LCD will flash.
Example:
— When holding extension 111, Mr. Brown: "111: Brown" will be displayed.
— When holding outside (CO) line, CO 1: "Call on CO 1" will be displayed.
SLT • If "Hold-2" or "Hold-3" is assigned by System Programming, you must dial "20" after
flashing the hookswitch.
SLT • Only an outside or intercom call can be placed on hold at one time. If you want to hold both
calls, use the Call Park feature.
