1.When on an outside call, press INT. The outside call is automatically placed on hold. The transferring set’s screen will show CALLING OTHER HANDSET. The called handset will ring, and its screen will show OTHER HANDSET IS CALLING.

2.On the ringing handset, press PHONE/FLASH, INT, SPEAKER, or any dial pad key (0-9, * or #) to answer the intercom call. You can now talk without the outside caller hearing the conversation.

3.Press OFF/CLEAR on the transferring handset or place it in the telephone base or handset charger to complete the transfer. The transferring handset’s screen will show CALL TRANSFERED and the other handset will automatically be connected to the outside call.

OFF/CLEAR, PHONE/FLASH, or INT.
