call forwarding

This feature means your phone can transfer incoming calls to another number of your choice. Call forwarding is great for the business person who wants to catch after hours, business calls at home, or for anyone who doesn't want to miss an important call.

To Forward Your Calls:

  1. Lift the receiver and listen for the dial tone.

  2. Dial "72".

  3. Depress the # button (with a rotary dial, skip this step and wait for a 4-second pause). Listen for the dial tone.

  4. Dial the number where you wish your calls forwarded. (Speed calling codes may be used if you also have this feature).

  5. When someone answers at the forwarded number, call forwarding is put into effect. If there's no answer, or the line is busy, hangup and repeat the previous steps. If you do this within two minutes, you will hear two beeps meaning your Call Forwarding feature is effect.

  6. Once you have activated the Call Forwarding, the phone will make one short ring each time a call is forwarded. However, you can still make out-going calls from this phone.

  7. If you wish to change the number your calls are being transferred to, just discontinue the first (see below), and redirect your calls using the above steps.

Note: If you forward a call to a toll area outside the area code, you must include the 1 + (area code) + the number.

Additional charges may apply for calls forwarded to a toll area. If you forward your calls to a toll area (ex: Pittsburg), the person calling you is charged for the call only to your number, but you are charged the rate from your number to the number in Pittsburg.

To Discontinue Call Forwarding:

  1. Lift the receiver and listen for the dial tone.

  2. Dial "73".

  3. Depress the # button (with a rotary dial, skip the step and wait for a 4-second pause).

  4. Listen for two beeps. Call Forwarding is now discontinued.
