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.
