Appendix B
Operation of the 500A Headset Adapter (with the 8102 Telephone)
If you are using a 500A Headset Adapter with your 8102 telephone, read the following instructions on using a headset and the headset adapter. Note that headset operation is essentially the same as handset operation, except when using the Hold feature.
Answering Calls
When a 500A headset adapter is connected to the Adjunct jack of an 8102 telephone, you may answer calls with either the handset or headset adapter.
To answer a call with the headset adapter, press the On/Quiet button. (The green light next to the button goes on.)
To mute the handset or headset adapter, you must hold down the On/Quiet button. (The green light next to the button stays on for as long as the button is held down.) When you want the other party to hear you again, you can remove your finger from the On/Quiet button. (The light goes off.)
To end a call, press the Off button on the headset adapter.

Putting Calls on Hold
To put a call on hold, press the Hold button on the 8102 telephone. (Note that the green light next to the On/Quiet button on the headset adapter remains on, even though the call is on hold.)
To retrieve the call on hold, you must press the Off button, and then within 2 seconds, press the On/Quiet button. (The red Hold light on the 8102 telephone goes off.) If you take more than 2 seconds for this sequence of button presses, the call will be dropped.
