Performing a Blind Transfer

transferred as soon as you dial the party’s number.

To perform a blind transfer:

.

From the Blind transfer to: screen, place a call to the party to whom you

want to transfer the call. See

the original call, tap the Cancel soft key.

The call automatically transfers to the party you specified.

Setting Up Conference Calls

You can create a conference with two other parties using the phone’s local

conference feature. During a conference call, your phone can exchange video

with only one conference participant (even if more than one participant can

send video). The participant with whom you exchange video depends on how

you set up the conference. You also have the option of choosing the participant

with whom to exchange video.

By default, you can create a conference with two other parties. Depending on your
phone system, you may be able to host a conference with more than two parties.
For more information, see your system administrator.
