Telephone Operation
Speakerphone
For hands-free operation and convenience, this unit is 
equipped with a speakerphone.
For best speakerphone performance, avoid the following:
•  Areas with high background noise. (The microphone 
might pick up these sounds and prevent the 
speakerphone from going into the receiving mode when 
you finish talking.)
•  Surfaces affected by vibration.
•  Recessed areas such as in a corner, under a cupboard, or 
next to a cabinet, which can generate an echo effect.
Note the following guidelines when using the 
speakerphone:
•  The speakerphone works similar to a two-way radio in 
that you can only listen or talk at one time. 
•  Stay reasonably close to the phone so that you can be 
clearly heard by the person to whom you are talking.
•  You can adjust the speaker volume by adjusting the 
VOLUME 
(
or
 q) 
buttons while the speakerphone is in 
use.
•  The speakerphone indicator illuminates when the  
speakerphone is in use.
