2. Attended Transfer:
Assuming that call party A and B are in conversation. A wants to Attend Transfer B to C:
(1) A presses FLASH (on the analog phone, or Hook Flash for old model phones) to get a
dial tone
(2) A then dial C’s number then # (or wait for 4 seconds).
(3) If C answers the call, A and C are in conversation. Then A can hang up to complete
transfer.
(4) If C does not answer the call, A can press “flash” back to talk to B.
NOTE: If Attended Transfer fails, and party A hangs up, the HandTone-496 will ring party A to remind A
that party B is still on the line. Party A can pick up the phone to resume conversation with party B.
