Call Forwarding

The Auto Attendant feature on the Base Unit must be on for Call Forwarding to function. Call Forwarding allows calls directed to a specific extension to be trans- ferred to another phone number. The Cordless Handset must be able to connect with the Base Unit to change the setting. Intercom calls are not forwarded. A warning message will appear on the Cordless Handset display that all calls are being for- warded. Setting a new call forwarding phone number will automatically replace the previous number.

NOTE: Each Cordless Handset that has Call Forwarding enabled will use 2 phone lines; one for the incoming call and one for when the call is forwarded.

NOTE: The Cordless Handset must be within the Base Unit’s coverage area to set up call forwarding. Otherwise, it will fail with a “No connection” message.
