Battery save switch
16The battery save switch is designed to converse battery power by putting the amplifier into sleep mode when it is sitting idle for more than two minutes. The circuit design allows the amplifier to awaken under several selectable conditions.
A Battery save feature is on. Amplifier is activated by the receive (incoming) audio.
B Battery save function is on. Amplifier is activated by the receive (incoming) or the transmit microphone) audio.
C Battery save feature is off. Amplifier runs continually. If using this setting, it is recommended that the headset/handset switch is put in handset position when the headset is not in use in order to save the battery.
Note: A beeping noise in the headset indicates that the batteries are low. Replace both batteries using only AA size batteries.
