Adjusting the Audio Tone, Activating T-Coil Mode | Uniden DECT1580

Base Speaker: You can choose from ten volume levels for the base speaker when the answering system announces or plays a message. To adjust the base speaker volume, press VOLUME (to make it louder) or VOLUME (to make it softer).

Adjusting the Audio Tone

If you aren’t satisfied with the audio quality of your phone, you can adjust the Audio Tone of the earpiece while on a call. Your phone gives you three audio tone options: low, natural and high; the default setting, Natural Tone, is recommended for hearing aid users. Audio tone adjustments only apply to the earpiece, not the speakerphone.

To adjust the audio tone:

1)While on a call, press Menu/Select.

2)Move the cursor to select Audio Tone, and then press Menu/Select.

3)Move the cursor to select desired option (High Tone, Natural Tone, or Low Tone), and then press Menu/ Select. Selected option appears in the display for two seconds, and then the display returns to normal.

Activating T-Coil Mode

Digital cordless phones generate magnetic signals that can cause noise on hearing aids equipped with a telecoil (“T” coil) feature. This phone includes a special “T-coil” mode that, when activated, reduces the magnetic noise generated by the handset.

1)With the phone in standby, press MENU/SELECT.

2)Select the Handset Setup menu, and then the T-coilsubmenu.

3)Move the cursor to select On or Off.

4)Press MENU/SELECT. You will hear a confirmation tone.

When the T-coil mode is turned on, appears in the display during a call.

Note: Using the T-coil mode may shorten the handset battery’s talk time; make sure you always return the handset to the charging cradle when not in use. Only activate T-coil mode if you experience problems using the handset with a T-coil-equipped hearing aid.
