The FWD/DND button light shows the current status as follows:
Off: Both features are not set.
Flashing red slowly: FWD mode
Red on: DND mode
The Group FWD button light shows the current status as follows:
Off: No set
Flashing red slowly: FWD mode
You can change the mode alternately by pressing the FWD/DND or Group FWD button while on-hook.
This only applies to a FWD/DND button or Group FWD button customized on a flexible button; it cannot be done on the FWD/DND button (fixed button).
(Refer to "Fixed Buttons" in "1.1.1 Before Operating the Telephones".)
Transferred outside calls are also forwarded to the destination assigned for outside calls.
 
When intercom calls are set to be handled differently from outside calls (forwarding type, forward destination), we recommend establishing buttons for both FWD/DND–Outside calls and FWD/DND–Intercom calls, and/or Group FWD–Outside calls and Group FWD–Intercom calls, because:
a)the light patterns of the FWD/DND–Both calls button (including FWD/DND button [fixed button]) and the Group FWD–Both calls button will indicate the setting for either outside calls or intercom calls, but not both.
Note
The FWD icon on PS display reflects the setting for outside calls only.
b)pressing the FWD/DND–Both calls button or the Group FWD–Both calls button will not change the FWD or DND mode for intercom calls and outside calls separately.
