3. Call forward (no answer) is disabled and the phone hangs up.
Call Forward (Out of Service) allows you to forward for your phone when it is out of
service to the number you enter. Calls will not ring at your phone and will be sent
to the number you entered as the forward destination. You can forward calls to an
IP or non-IP phone.
Calls forwarded to an external number (7 or more digits) that are unanswered will
roll over to voice mail (if available) at that number. Calls forwarded to an internal
number (4-digit to 6-digit extension) that are unanswered will roll over to voice mail
(if available) for the called party (not the forwarding destination).
External forwarding must be supported by your system for external numbers to be
accepted. Be sure to include the access code for an outside line and the area code,
if necessary, with the external number. Up to 20 digits may be entered.
NOTE: The display will show the available options as the prompts are played. Depending
on available space on the display, the final entry (usually * for re-enter or exit) may
not appear completely.
1. If you have only one extension on your phone, skip to step 2. Otherwise,

•
Press 1 to enable forwarding. Go to step 11.
•
Press 2 to change the current forwarding number. Go to step 5.
5. Enter the number to which you want to forward calls when your phone is out
of service. Be sure to enter the number exactly as you would if you were to
call that number. Include the area code, if necessary. The display shows the
number as it is entered.
6. Press #.
7. A prompt asks you to confirm the forwarding number by pressing # or re-enter
the forwarding number by pressing *.
