Feature codes

Your network requires separate codes for activating and cancelling the various types of call
forwarding. Your service provider can provide you with the necessary feature codes for these
network services.

Once you store these feature codes in your phone, they are sent automatically to the network
when you select one of the call forwarding options from your phone menu.

Your phone can store the following types of feature codes:

Store a code

1

Press Menu 4-6-5 (Settings > Network services > Network feature setting).

The Feature code field appears after a few seconds.

2

Enter the feature code your service provider gave you. For example, *90 for activating
Forward if busy, and press OK.

3

Press Select when Call forwarding is displayed.

4

Scroll to the type of forwarding that matches the feature code you entered (for example,
Forward if busy, and press Select).

5

Select Activate.

The Activate feature code is now stored in your phone, and you are returned to the Feature code
field. Continue entering other feature codes (for example, *900 to cancel Forward if busy), or
press the End key to return to the start screen.

Important:

Once you enter a network feature code successfully, the feature becomes

visible in the Network services menu.

Enter the number to which you want your calls forwarded (or press Search to recall a

• CALL WAITING

This network service lets you receive an incoming call when you are already in a call. When you
receive an incoming call, your phone displays the caller’s phone number (or the caller’s entry
in your phone book). The phone also beeps, notifying you of the incoming call.

To answer call waiting, press the Send key or Answer to place the current active call on hold
and automatically answer the new call.

To switch between two calls, accepting the waiting call puts the first caller on hold. To put the
second caller on hold and reconnect with the first caller, press the Send key.

To end an active call, simply allow the other party to hang up; the call on hold then becomes
the active call.

• CONFERENCE CALLING

This feature allows you to talk to two people at the same time. Conference calling is a
network—dependent feature.

Check with your service provider to make sure this service is available in

your network.
