You may transfer an outside call to all stations by using the transfer ring. If you answer a call that is not for you, and you do not know where to direct it, press TRANSFER twice. All of the other phones will ring in the transfer ring and the call will be transferred to the next answering station. The call will remain on hold at your station until another station picks up the call.
