Speed Dial/Xfer
The Speed Dial key allows a number to be dialed quickly by pressing one key configured for speed dialing. The Transfer 
key allows a call to be transferred to other recipients blindly or consultatively. The Speed Dial/Xfer key combines the 
Speed Dial and Transfer keys’ functionality together allowing the user to transfer calls or speed dial with one key.
Speed Dial/Xfer Key Requirements and Functionality
The Speed Dial/Xfer key has the following capabilities:
Speed Dial/Xfer and Speed Dial: When the phone is in the idle state, pressing the Speed Dial/Xfer key causes the 
phone to go offhook and dial the predefined extension.
Speed Dial/Xfer and Blind Transfer: When the phone is connected to a call, pressing the Speed Dial/Xfer key blind 
transfers the call to the predefined target.
If transferring a call fails, a message Transfer Failed displays, and you can reconnect the call (get the call back) by 
pressing the line key again.
Speed Dial/Xfer and Call Forward: When the phone is in the ringing state, pressing the Speed Dial/Xfer key forwards 
the call to the predefined extension.
