functions, for example, when your line is busy.
You specify additional phones (your mobile and other phones) that you want to use
to make and receive calls with the same directory numbers as your desk phone. You
can also define blocked and preferred contacts to restrict or allow calls from certain
numbers to be sent to your mobile phone. When you set up additional phones, you can
also set up the following features:
• Single number reach—You specify if the additional phone should ring when
someone calls your desk phone.
• Mobile calls—If the additional phone is a mobile phone, you can set it up to
allow you to transfer mobile calls to your desk phone or desk phone calls to your
mobile phone.
You assign phone numbers to speed-dial numbers so that you can quickly call that
person.
