German: Wählen mit aufliegendem Hörer.
Explanation
The condition that exists when a telephone or other user instrument is not in use, i.e., when idle waiting for a call. Note: on-hook originally referred to the storage of an idle telephone receiver, i.e., separate earpiece, on a switchhook. The weight of the receiver depresses the spring loaded switchhook thereby disconnecting the idle instrument from the telephone line.
