							Using Special Features During a Web Call
Your phone gives you the ability to use special features while
you’re on a Web call. They are outlined below:
Call Waiting:If someone tries to reach you while you’re
connected to the Web, your phone behaves like it is turned
OFF. Depending on your service, callers may get your
voicemail. Call Waiting is automatically deactivated whenever
you place or receive a Web connection call.
Accessing Features:You can still access most of your phone’s
features while you’re connected on a Web connection call.
You can navigate the phone’s menu system to change or view
your phone’s features or Internal Phone Book entries. You can
also read messages or view the Caller ID records that you
received before placing the call.
Ending a Web Call
It’s important to note that some of the normal ways to end a call
won’t work with Web connection calls. You should always close
the connection through the application on your computer. Your
phone will then return to standby mode.
