Using a Headset

To dial a number stored in a standard memory location, press TALK. When you hear a dial tone, press MEM and en- ter the two-digit memory location num- ber for the number you want to dial.

Note: If you select an invalid memory lo- cation (for example 3 instead of 03), the phone sounds an error tone. Press MEM again and re-enter the memory location number.

You can talk with hands-free convenience using an optional headset that has a 3/32- inch (2.5-mm) plug. Contact your local RadioShack store for a suitable headset.

To connect the headset, open the rub- ber cover marked on the side of the handset, then insert the headset’s plug into the jack.

Chain-Dialing Service Numbers

For quick recall of numbers for special services (such as alternate long dis- tance or bank-by-phone), store each group of numbers in its own memory lo- cation.

Dial the service’s main number first. Then, at the appropriate place in the call, press the memory location button (M1–M4), or press MEM and enter the memory location number (01–20), for the stored information.

Testing Stored Emergency Numbers

If you store an emergency service’s number (police department, fire depart- ment, ambulance) and you choose to test the stored number, make the test call during the late evening or early morning hours to avoid peak demand periods. Also, remain on the line to ex- plain the reason for your call.

Notes:

•Connecting a headset disconnects the handset’s earpiece and micro- phone.

•VOL on the handset also controls the connected headset’s volume.

•If you place the handset on the base while the headset is connected, be sure the handset seats properly.

With a headset connected, you can make or answer calls as usual using the keys on the handset.

You can use a handset holder (available from your local RadioShack store) to hang the handset on your belt for greater convenience.

When you finish using the headset, dis- connect it and close the rubber cover to protect the jack.
