See page 6 for location of button controls.

Standby Mode

The headset is automatically in standby mode when you remove it from the base; therefore, a single press of the multifunction button will activate the headset. After removing the headset from the base, a yellow flashing light on the headset indicates that Standby Mode is active (you may need to wait 5 seconds to see it). If the yellow light is not flashing, turn the headset on (instructions below).

Since standby time is extensive and the headset continues to charge any time it is stored in the base, it is usually not necessary to turn off the headset to conserve bat- tery power. However, if you wish to turn the headset off and on, follow these steps.

Turning the Headset Off and On

Off (Standby Mode not active) – Press and hold the multifunction button on the headset for about 3 seconds until you hear 3 beeps that descend in tone. The yellow light on the headset will stop flashing. The headset is now off and you are no longer in Standby Mode.

On (Standby Mode active) – Press and hold the multifunction button on the headset for about 3 seconds until you hear 3 beeps that ascend in tone. The yellow light on the headset will flash every few seconds. The headset is now on and you are in Standby Mode.

Make A Call / End A Call

Make A Call

Before you begin, make sure the headset is in Standby Mode (see above).

1.Put the headset on and position the microphone properly.

2.Activate the headset*: Firmly press and release the multifunction button on the

headset for 1 second. You will hear a beep. The headset icon will light up on the right side of the base indicating that the headset is active (it may take a few seconds before the headset icon lights up). Activate your phone by removing the handset from the cradle or by pressing the line or headset button. If the dial tone is too loud when you activate your phone, you can press the volume decrease button 1-3 times before activating the headset.

3.Dial as usual.

*If the headset icon is already showing on the front of the base, then the headset is already active and you may simply activate the phone and dial as usual.

End the Call

Place the handset back in cradle, or press the line or headset button on the phone to end the call.

Adjust the Microphone Volume

Microphone Volume Adjustment

The Microphone Volume Adjustment is located on the bottom of the B200 base (see photo). If the person on the other end of the call is having trouble hearing you, position the base as shown and turn the knob clockwise to increase the volume. If your voice is too loud, turn the knob counterclockwise to decrease volume.
