You can press the headset button to perform tasks such as the following: • Answer an incoming call • Respond to call waiting • Hang up a single active call or all calls on a conference call if there is no extracted call • Swap between calls if there is one active call and one call on hold NOTE Your smartphone works with headsets that have a 2.5mm, 3-pin connector (look for three dark bands on the plug).
