OWNER’S MANUAL — Please read before using this equipment.
Your RadioShack Handsfree Speakerphone Kit is easy to use. The kit turns your cellular or
PCS phone into a speakerphone in your car or truck. Just plug it into any standard (negative
ground) 12-volt power source, connect it to your phone, and plug in the microphone. It even
automatically recharges the phone’s battery.

1. Insert the speakerphone’s plug into your
vehicle’s 12-volt power source or
cigarette-lighter socket. The green
POWER indicator lights. Turn the
speaker grill toward you to allow at least
2 inches of clearance so you can use the
mode switch on the back.
±
2. Plug the phone connector on the end of
the coiled cord into the slot on the base
of your phone, with
TOP
facing the same
direction as the keypad. The connector
only fits one way; do not force it.
±
3. Plug the microphone into the
MIC
jack.
4. Attach the supplied microphone to your
car’s visor using the supplied visor clip or
to your clothing using the supplied lapel
clip.
±
To attach the microphone to the visor,
tuck the wire into the space between the
windshield glass and trim, or under the
trim, whichever is easier. Run the wire
down to the dash and around the dash
edge, being careful not to put the wire
where it can be pinched by the door.
Plug the microphone’s plug into the
MIC
jack, then point the microphone toward
you.
To attach the microphone to your
clothing,
attach the clip about 6 inches
below your chin. Leave a comfortable
length of cord between the microphone
and the speaker. Wrap up the excess
cord so it does not interfere with vehicle
operation.
±
5. Turn the phone on if it has not turned on
automatically. The speakerphone beeps
and the POWER indicator lights.

You can use the speakerphone in either
handsfree or privacy mode. To change
modes, briefly insert your finger in the mode-
switching finger groove on the back of the
speaker. When your finger breaks the beam,
the indicator changes color.
In handsfree mode,
the phone’s internal
microphone and speaker are disabled and
the phone operates like a speakerphone. The
POWER indicator lights steadily green. You
can talk and listen without holding the phone.
±
In privacy mode,
the phone operates
normally. The POWER indicator turns red.
Pick up the phone and use it like any other
handset.

Preparation
If your vehicle’s cigarette-lighter socket is
difficult to reach, outlet adapters are available
at your RadioShack store or online at
RadioShack.com.
For safety and the best performance, hold the
phone upright with a phone holder, available
at RadioShack.
To avoid system lockup, always disconnect
the speakerphone kit from power before
starting your vehicle.
You might have to turn the ignition key to
Accessory or ON to power the cigarette-
lighter socket.
Replacement microphones are available at
RadioShack.
To avoid feedback, position the microphone
so it is not directly in line with the speaker.
You might need to turn the speaker slightly.
Anytime the indicator is lit, power is on and
the phone’s battery is charging.
Changing Modes
If you are unable to make a call in handsfree
mode, contact your phone store to update the
phone’s software.
Disconnecting and reconnecting the cord
does not change the mode.

If your cigarette-lighter socket or power outlet
remains on when the vehicle is turned off, and
you plan to leave your vehicle for more than a
week, unplug the speakerphone to prevent
excessive battery discharge and difficulty
starting your vehicle.
