Avoid talking until the other person is finished. When you both speak at
the same time, transmission may be broken.
If you have trouble hearing the other person, try increasing the volume
level of the speaker.
To use the speakerphone, just touch Speakerphone to turn it on and off. The
light next to the button shows whether the speakerphone is activated.
Speaker
With a speaker, you can place a call (see "On-Hook Dialing" in Section 3,
"Reference") or monitor a call if you have been put on hold (see "Monitor-
on-Hold" in Section 3, "Reference") without lifting your handset. In order for
the person at the other end to hear you, however, you must speak into your
handset. With a call in progress, you can turn on your speaker to let others
in your office hear the call (see "Group Listening" in Section 3, "Reference").
Keep these points in mind:
When you use the Monitor-on-Hold or the Group Listening feature, your
speaker makes a squealing noise when the handset comes close to it. To
prevent this, touch Speaker before hanging up your handset.
If you have a 7406D digital phone, you can use the Group Listening and
the On-Hook Dialing feature, but not Monitor-on-Hold.
If you have a Hands-Free Unit connected to your phone, the HFU turns
on when you touch an Outside Auto Dial button. See "Outside Auto Dial"
in Section 3, "Reference."
To
use the speaker, follow the procedures below to place and monitor calls on
hold and to let other people with you hear the other side of the conversation.
On-Hook Dialing:
1 Without lifting your handset, press Speaker.
2 Dial the number.
3 When you hear the other person answer, lift your handset to speak.
If the line is busy, or if you get no answer:
1 Press Speaker to cancel the call.
Monitor-on-Hold:
1 When you have been put on hold, press Speaker.
2 Hang up.
3 When you hear the other person return to the call, lift your handset
and continue the call.
Group Listening:
1 While a call is in progress, press Speaker and continue your
conversation.
