an incoming call when your line is in use on the other phone.
Monitoring a Call Hands-Free
If you are put on hold, you can put the call on the speaker and hang up the handset
to monitor the call until you are taken off hold again. This is useful when, for
example, you are waiting in a queue for the next available agent.

You will be able to hear the hold music, announcement or conversation
played through the phone speaker. The other party will not be able to hear
you, however.
