To transfer a call to another Extension

• While on the call, select 'Internal Transfer' on the Display.
• Select the desired Extension from the Extension list presented on the Display, or dial the
Extension number.
• Select 'Transfer' or replace the handset, to transfer the call.
Note: You can transfer a call to an extension when the Extension has answered, while ringing the
Extension, or while the busy tone is being received from the Extension.
From a standard telephone, press the Recall (R) key on the telephone and dial the Extension
number. To transfer the call, replace the handset.

• Select a free Line and dial the number.
• When the call is answered, press 'Transfer'.

are called trunk-to-trunk calls.

To make an external consultation call

While on an external call you can contact another external number to make an enquiry, as follows:
• Press the Scroll Down Key ( ) until 'External Consultation' is displayed.
• Select the 'External Consultation' option on the Display.

• When the call is answered, you can go back and forth between both calls. Select the
'Return and hold' option on the Display each time you want to swap to the other call.

Deflecting calls

This allows you to divert a call that is ringing at your Featurephone.

To deflect a call ringing at your Extension

• When a call is ringing at your Featurephone, select 'Deflect the call' on the Display.
• Select a free Extension from the Extension List presented on the Display. The call is
presented to the selected Extension and stops ringing at your Featurephone. If you attempt
to deflect a call to an unavailable Extension it will continue ringing.

To Forward a call ringing at your Extension to Voicemail:

• When a call is ringing at your Featurephone select 'Deflect to Voicemail ' on the Display. The
call is deflected to your personal voice box.
• The call is deflected to the Group Voice Box if the call is a group call. If the Voicemail is busy
the call continues to ring at your Featurephone.
Note: For information on setting up and using a Voice Mailbox refer to page 66.
