If a telephone is calling, the multipass is ringing and you can answer the call by taking an additional telephone (which i connected according to the manual).

Good to hear from you, Jommeke. I was thinking about you just a couple of days ago. I have a Canon Mulitpass C5500. We have to keep it unplugged from the phone line so it won't make wierd noises in our ear every time we answer the phone. If you come up with a solution, let me know.
