If you cannot answer the call, the caller goes to voicemail if voicemail has been configured for your extension.
Sending incoming Calls to Voicemail
You can send an incoming call directly to voicemail without answering the call. To do this, press
without picking up the handset. If you're already on the phone your incoming call should go directly to voicemail. Your phone screen displays a voicemail icon (*) along with the number of waiting messages, if you have unheard messages (example: * x 4).

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 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 the left and righ navigation buttons.

Handling 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.
Consultative 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, simply 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.
To transfer a call to another extension
1. Connect to Party 1 (if not already connected). Party 1 is the party you want
to transfer.
2. Press the Xfer key. You should hear a dial tone as a second line opens up.
3. Press a line/call appearance button followed by the extension number (or the outside
number) to Party 2. This is the Party for which you want to transfer Party 1
4. To complete a "blind" Xfer, press the Xfer Key again before the receiving end answers. To
complete a consultive transfer, remain on the line to speak with the Party 2, before pressing the Xfer Key again to transfer Party 1 to Party 2. To cancel the transfer, select Cancel on the
display screen or press
