BASIC PHONE FUNCTIONS
Using the Hands-Free Headset or Audio Jack
Your phone is equipped with 2 Headset jacks and 1 Audio Neckloop Jack. One headset jack is located on the left side of the handset and the other headset jack is located on the left side of the base. The audio jack is located on the left side of the base. These jacks are amplified, allowing you to adjust both the tone and volume the same as you would through the handset (see page 34 for amplification instructions). The Audio Neckloop Jack – the 3.5mm Audio Neckloop jack allows you to listen through your device while speaking into the speakerphone. The Headset Jack ­ the 2.5mm Headset jack allows you to listen and speak through your hands-free headset. This 2.5mm phone headset jack accommodates a variety of optional handsfree accessories including headphones, neckloops, silhouettes, and cellular accessories. When a 2.5mm audio device is plugged in, the incoming audio signal to the handset will now be transferred to the headset jack. No output on the handset or speakerphone will be heard.
