How to Transfer Calls via Dect Handset Names: 

If all Dect phone handsets are connected up to the same Base Station then the easiest way to transfer the call is for you to click on the ‘INT’ button which you will see on the left hand-side of the silver square button in the centre of the phone key pad as shown below: 

Select the phone name you wish to transfer to from the list of handset names to select that phone.  To connect the caller to your colleague click on ‘conference’ or 'Transfer' to transfer the caller over and then hang up.  

Please note - these instructions will not work if you are using a combination of cordless Dect and corded Desk phones.  Instead you will need to follow the instructions above.
