MAKING AND RECEIVING CALLS

TALK

VOLUME

To end a call, press TALK or place the keypad on the base.

Notes:

When you press a button, a single tone indicates that the phone has ac- cepted the command. Three tones in- dicate that you pressed a button in error, you are out of range, or there is too much interference. If there is se- vere interference, see “Changing Channels.”

If interference is severe, the keypad might lose communication with the base and the call might disconnect. If this happens, return the keypad to the base for about five seconds to reset the security access-protection code.

ADJUSTING THE HEADSET’S VOLUME

To adjust the headset’s volume, repeat- edly press VOLUME or VOLUME dur- ing a call until the sound level is comfortable. You can set the headset’s volume to one of eight levels, and it will remain set even after you hang up.

CHANGING CHANNELS

Every time you press TALK, the ET-1101 automatically selects a clear channel from the 40 it uses for communication between the headset and the base. If you hear in- terference during a call, repeatedly press CHANNEL to change the channel until you get a clear one.
