• Lift the receiver.
Using Handsfree
The indicator next to
is solid when you have Handsfree
turned on. It flashes when you mute the microphone.
Wait for your caller to finish speaking before you speak. The
microphone and speaker cannot both be on at once. Your caller's
voice may be cut off if you both speak at the same time. Noises such
as a tapping pencil could be loud enough to turn on your microphone
and cut off your caller's speech.
To prevent a possible echo, keep the area around your telephone
free of paper and other objects that might screen your microphone.
Turning down the microphone's volume (press while
speaking) also prevents echoes. When you change the volume
level, both the microphone and speaker volume are adjusted to
prevent feedback problems.
Place the telephone so that any unavoidable local noise (such as an
air conditioner) is behind it. This limits the amount of disruptive
background noise.
Changing Handsfree for a telephone
You can program the type of Handsfree used with each telephone
or activate Handsfree Answerback.
You will need the programming template found at the front of this
guide. See Getting Started for more information.

Tip -
In open-concept environments, use the

necessary or when you need privacy during a call.
