Receiving an Incoming Call During an Intercom Call
When in intercom mode, a beep tone sounds on the receivers indicating an incoming
call. You must end the intercom before answering the incoming call.
Using Intercom with External Telephone Calls
During a telephone call, you may use the intercom/paging function to page another
handset and have an off line, private (two-way) intercom conversation. You may also
have a three-way conference between the external caller and the base/handsets, or
you may transfer the external telephone call to another handset or the base.
NOTE: Before you page/intercom another handset, you must
decide whether you want to create a two-way or a three-way
conversation.
Two-Way Calling
1. During an external call, press the page/intercom button on the base or the int
button on the cordless handset, and use the number keypad to enter the handset
number you want to call.
NOTE: The receiving handset presses the or
speaker
button to
answer the intercom call. Both intercom users may speak privately.
The external caller will not hear the intercom conversation.
. When finished, the second handset hangs up to end the intercom call, and your
original telephone conversation resumes.
Three Way Conference Call
After receiving an external call, it is possible to include a second handset in the
conversation.
1. During an external call, press the button or
speaker
button of another cordless
handset to join call (If Base, pick up the corded handset from the base or press the
speaker button).
 If either handset or base hangs up, the remaining user continues with the external
call.
Call Transfer
The function allows you to transfer an external call from the base to a cordless
handset, or from a cordless handset to the base or another cordless handset.
1. During an external call, press the
page/intercom button on the base or int
button on the handset to put the external call on hold.
. Enter the number of the handset that you would like to transfer the call to (0 for
base, 1-4 for cordless handset).
