Intercom and call transfers
Some features described on this page are available
only if you have purchased and registered optional
expansion handsets (see page 25).
Paging and intercom calls
The intercom allows you to communicate with
expansion handsets without using an outside line.
Select INTERCM to see a list of active handsets. Press
the V^ buttons to highlight the set you want (or
choose CALL ALL to page all handsets). Select OK to
page the highlighted handset(s).
To answer a page, select INTERCM. Press OFF to end
the call. If you receive an outside call while using the
intercom, press the flashing CALL button to answer
the outside call (this will end your intercom call).
Call forward and call transfer
During a conversation you can select INTERCM (this
places your call on hold) to page another handset
and send the call to it.
Call Forward (stardard calls only): Press OFF before
your intercom page is answered. If the paged handset
is not answered in about 30 seconds, the external call
will be returned to your handset. If you do not press
CALL to answer within 30 seconds, the external call
will be terminated.
Call Transfer (standard or Internet calls): After your
page is answered you can speak to the person at the
remote handset. Either person can press OFF to
release the external call to the other person. If no one
answers the paged handset, press the flashing CALL
button to retrieve the call.

If you misplace a handset, press LOCATE HANDSET at
the base. All registered handsets will ring for 60 sec-
onds to help you locate them. To stop the ringing,
press OFF at the handset, or press LOCATE HANDSET at
the base.
