The base unit user can make a voice announcement that is heard through the
speakers of all handsets.

conversation using the Booster feature, 1 of the remaining 3 handsets will not
receive the voice announcement.
• Only the handset user who answers first can talk with the base unit user.
• To answer the page from the handsets, see “Answering Intercom Calls” on
page 50.
