USING THE

SPEAKERPHONE

Making a Call

To make a call, press LINE 1 (or LINE 2), listen for a dial tone, then dial the num- ber. When you press a line button on the base, that line’s indicator on the base lights. The same line’s indicator on the handset flashes to show that someone is using that line at the handset.

Note: If a line indicator on the base is flashing, someone is using that line at the handset. Press the other line button.

To end a call, press LINE 1 (or LINE 2).

Answering a Call

When a call comes in, the line indicator for that line flashes at the handset and base.

To answer a call, press the line button for the line that is ringing, or simply press any number key. The indicator for that line lights at the base and flashes at the handset.

If you receive a call on one line while you are using the speakerphone to talk on the other, the new call’s line indicator

flashes. Press the line button for the in- coming call. The current call is automati- cally put on hold.

If both lines have an incoming call, pressing a number key answers the line that began ringing first.

Adjusting the Speakerphone Volume

To set the speakerphone’s volume, slide VOLUME on the right side of the base.

Using Mute

While talking on the speakerphone, you can temporarily turn off the ET-687’s mi- crophone by pressing MUTE so the other party cannot hear you. The line indicator flashes red when a line is muted.

Press MUTE again to resume your con- versation.

Note: MUTE does not work during an in- tercom call.
