For incoming call alert, see settings in the Vibrate menu option (page 81) and the Tones menu option (page 85).

Any incoming Group call is ALWAYS received through the main speaker. If configured by your Service Provider, the Group Audio menu item allows to setup the audio of the incoming Group Call.

If the setup is Speaker Control, you can direct the audio of an active group to the earpiece (low audio) or the main speaker (high audio). In low audio speak into the bottom microphone and listen via the earpiece. In high audio speak into the top microphone and listen via the speaker.

At the end of a call which has been directed to the earpiece, an audio hang timer is activated, if it is enabled by your Service Provider. Within the preprogrammed hang time, any incoming call is still received through the earpiece. When the timer expires, a low pitch tone is emitted alerting you that the next incoming Group call will be received through the speaker. Upon hearing this alert, you are advised to hold the terminal at a comfortable distance away from the speaker.
