Adjusting the Audio Tone (Handset only)

If you aren’t satisfied with the audio quality of your phone, you can adjust the Audio Tone of the earpiece while on a call. Your phone gives you three audio tone options: low, natural and high; the default setting, Natural Tone, is recommended for hearing aid users. Audio tone adjustments only apply to the earpiece, not the speakerphone.

To adjust the audio tone:

1)While on a call, press [menu/select].

2)Move the cursor to select AUDIO TONE, and then press [menu/select].

3)Move the cursor to select desired option (HIGH TONE, NATURAL TONE, or LOW TONE), and then press [menu/select]. Selected option appears in the display for two seconds, and then the display returns to normal.
