• Ensure that the voltage rating (e.g. 230V 50Hz) corresponds to the local mains supply you intend to use. • Use only a headset recommended by Plantronics for use with this product (please contact your supplier for further details). • Use only spare batteries of the same type as supplied with this product (please contact your supplier for further details).

Tip: Normally the speak volume adjustment need only be made once when initially setting up the CA40 Adapter, and should not require adjustment thereafter. Too high a speak volume level can cause audio problems so be careful to set this at a comfortable level for the person at the other end.

AUDIBLE CUE VOLUME The CA40 amplifier provides audio feedback for most operator adjustments. The audio indications – or Audible Cues - take the form of different toned beeping sounds for different functions.
