Additional Information

Headset Operation

 

 

Your cordless telephone is equipped with a 2.5mm Headset Jack for use with an optional accessory Headset for hands-free operation. If you choose to use the Headset option, you must obtain an optional accessory Headset, which is compatible with the Handset.

To purchase a Headset, call VTech Customer Service at 1-800-595-9511; in Canada, call 1-800-267-7377.

Once you have a compatible 2.5mm Headset, locate the Headset Jack on the Handset. Connect the plug on the Headset cord to the jack (under a small rubber flap) on the cordless Handset. The plug should fit securely. Do not force the connection.

NOTE :

Whenever a compatible Headset is connected to the cordless Handset, the microphone on the Handset will be muted. This is done to limit the effect of background noise.

Belt Clip

Your Handset is equipped with an attached belt clip. At the top of the Handset, slide the clip away from the body of the Handset by pushing on the indent with your finger.

CAUTION: The Belt Clip is designed to remain attached to the Handset. Do not attempt to remove it.
