Installation

o WARNING o

Dispose of the old battery pack promptly and properly. Do not burn or bury it. There is a risk of explosion if battery is replaced by an incorrect type. Dispose of used batteries according to the instructions.

Ô NOTES Ô

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

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

•The supplied battery pack should last for about a year. If the battery pack does not hold a charge for more than 2 hours after an overnight charge, replace it with a new 3.6-volt, 800 mAh battery pack with a connector that fits the socket in the battery compartment. You can order a replacement battery pack through RadioShack. Install the

new battery pack and charge it for about 15–20 hours.o

INSTALLING A BELTCLIP

To attach the beltclip

Insert the beltclip into the holes on each side of the handset. Press down until it clicks.

To remove the beltclip

Pull either side of the beltclip to release the tabs from the holes.

USING A HEADSET

You can make or answer calls with hands- free convenience using an optional headset that has a 3/32-inch (2.5-mm) plug.

RadioShack has a variety of headsets available.

To connect the headset, gently flip open the rubber headset jack cover on the side of the handset. Then insert the headset’s plug into the jack. Ô

Connecting a headset disconnects the handset’s earpiece and microphone.

VOL/RING/ or VOL/RING/ on the handset also controls the headset’s volume.

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

When you finish using the headset, disconnect it from the handset and close the rubber cover to protect the jack.
