USING A HEADSET

You can make or answer calls with hands-free convenience using an op- tional headset (available at your local RadioShack store) that has a 3/32-inch plug.

To connect the headset, pull open the

rubber cover marked on the side of the handset, then insert the 3/32-inch plug into the jack.

Notes:

Connecting a headset disconnects the handset’s earpiece and micro- phone, but it does not affect the ET- 686’s speakerphone.

VOLUME on the handset also con- trols the connected headset’s vol- ume.

If you place the handset on the base facedown to recharge it while the headset is connected, be sure the handset seats properly.

With a headset connected, you make or answer calls as usual, using the keys on the handset.

You can use a handset holder (available at your local RadioShack store) to hang the handset on your belt for greater con- venience.

When you finish using the headset, dis- connect it from the handset and close the rubber cover to protect the jack.
