5 Using Your Headset System

Powering Up the Headset

If the headset battery is charged and connected to the headset, the headset is automatically on. The headset does not have an on/off button.

Talk Time

With a single full charge, the Savi W445 will provide up to 7 hours of talk time in narrowband mode. Talk time will be reduced when operating in wideband mode and/or if the headset is used consistently at a far distance from the adapter. The battery can be replaced, even mid-call, giving essentially unlimited talk time. See “Replacing Your Headset Battery.”

Muting a Headset During A Call

To mute/unmute the call, press the volume/mute button in. The USB adaptor light will flash red when the headset is muted.

When mute is activated, you will hear three high tones. When unmuted, you will hear three low tones.

After the Plantronics software is loaded, the mute tones can be turned off by going to Start > Programs > Plantronics Control Panel > Devices > Device Settings > Headset – Mute Tone.
