How to Use the Handset and Speaker

You can place calls with the handset or speaker, but you can only talk to your party through the handset. Through the speaker, you can only listen to a call. These sections describe the use of the handset and speaker and how to adjust the volume of the call:

Using the Handset

To place and answer calls with the handset, simply lift the handset. To change from handset to speaker, press Speaker and hang up the handset.

Using the Speaker

The speaker is designed to be used for “hands-free” dialing. You can use it to place a call, and then pick up the handset if the other party answers the phone.

The speaker does not allow for two-way communication. However, you can have the handset off-hook with the speaker on, enabling the calling party to hear you over the handset while you listen through the speaker. You might want to do this if you want to use the phone for conference calls.

To place calls using the speaker, press Speaker and dial the number. When the party answers, pick up the handset. If the handset is off-hook with the Speaker button enabled, you can speak into it, allowing the calling party to hear you. This allows others to listen to both sides of the conversation.

If you are only listening to a call, you can leave the handset in the rest. The mute button automatically lights, indicating that the calling party cannot hear you. When finished with the call, press Speaker to hang up.

Note You cannot use the speaker to transmit your voice.
