58 CHAPTER 5: BASIC TELEPHONE OPERATION
It may take a few minutes for your headset to return from the
power-saving mode to the active mode when calls first come in, so your
telephone may not ring until the headset has returned to active mode,
and you may miss a call.
If you plan to not use the headset for a long time, 3Com recommends
that you set the mute and headset buttons on the amplifier to Off and
hang up the handset on your telephone. When you are ready to receive
calls again, set up the headset for receiving calls:
1 Pick up the handset on your telephone and set it on your desk.
2 Put on the headset.
3 On the amplifier, set the headset button to On.
Putting a Call
on Hold
To put a call on hold:
1 While you are on a call, press the Hold button. This message appears in

2 To return to the call, press the Hold button again or press the appropriate
Access button.
Music on Hold If configured by the administrator, callers on hold hear music while they
wait.
