How three-way calling works:

When you're talking with someone, you can add a third person to the call.

To add a third person to the call:

1. Press and quickly release the "switchhook" to place the first person on hold.
2. Listen for the dial tone. (If operating on a per use basis, press *71, otherwise proceed directly to step 3.)
3. Dial the third person's phone number.
4. To make the three-way connection, press and quickly release the "switchhook."
5. You can now talk with both people at the same time.

To cancel the three-way connection:

• If the third person did not answer or you wish to disconnect them,
  just press and quickly release the "switchhook." You will be then reconnected to the person holding.
• Or, if either of the two people hang up, you can continue talking with the remaining person.

Notes: The "switchhook" is the button the handset pushes down when you hang up the phone. Some telephones have a Link or Flash key you can press instead.
