1.2 Positioning Your EP100

When your new EP100 arrives, the system installer unpacks the phone and connects the line cord to a system jack. The following sec- tions describe a few initial adjustments that allow you to quickly begin making and answering calls.

You should adjust the position of the EP100 on your desk or table to suit your individual needs and maximize the performance of the sound activated features. When using your EP100, the microphone and loudspeaker are farther from you than when you use a handset. Some positioning tips to consider include:

•For the microphone to best detect your voice, speak within three feet of it and face the speakerphone.

•Background noise may prevent the sound-activated switches from operating properly. Avoid placing the EP100 where it will detect sounds from keyboards, printers, paging systems, typewriters, or other equipment.

•Place the telephone on a hard surface and away from table edges. Do not place the telephone in corners or enclosures. Do not let obstructions come between you and the microphone.

Your telephone has an adjustable pedestal to allow you to select the most comfortable viewing angle. When you receive the telephone, the pedestal is in its lowest position—flush against the pedestal.

To adjust the pedestal,

1.Grasp the rear of the pedestal base firmly with one hand and lift the rear portion of the telephone upward with your other hand.
