Handling Calls

When on Hold

To let your caller know that they are still on hold, music plays softly (if this has been set up for your system). The call/line appearance light for the line you are on flashes to indicate that you are still connected.

Automatic Hold

When juggling between calls, you do not have to press the hold button to go from one call to the next. The phone automatically puts your current call on hold as soon as you press a new line/call appearance button. If you have more than one call on hold, you can reconnect to a held call by pressing the line/call appearance button where that call is being held. Press Goodbye to disconnect the call.

Retrieving a Held Call

If you have more than 1 call on hold, you can scroll through the held call information by pressing 3 and 4 navigation keys. To reconnect to a call press the line/call appearance button where that call is being held. If you press the call/line appearance button again, you disconnect from the call.

Transferring Calls

Blind Transfer

A blind transfer is when you transfer a call directly to another extension without consulting with the person receiving the call. To do this, simply complete the transfer immediately after you have entered the number. The call goes directly to the extension or outside line you transferred to. If the party you are transferring the call to does not answer, the transferred call rings back to your extension.

Consultive Transfer

You also have the option to consult with the person you are transferring the call to, before you complete the transfer. To do this, remain on the line until the receiving party answers the call. After consulting with the receiving party, you can either complete the transfer or cancel the transfer to go back to the original call.
