OPTIONAL HEADSET INSTALLATION AND
OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
Your VT9171 cordless telephone is equipped with a 2.5mm Headset Jack for use
with an optional accessory Headset for hands-free operation
If you choose to use the Headset option, you must do the following:
INSTALLATION
Obtain an optional accessory Headset, which is compatible with the VT9171.
Please contact VTECH Communications Customer Service, toll-free at
1-800-595-9511 for dealer information in your local area. You can also
purchase a compatible Headset directly from VTECH Communications
Customer Service.
Once you have a compatible 2.5mm Head-
set, locate the Headset Jack on the Hand-
set of your VT9171. Connect the plug on the
Headset to the jack on the cordless Hand-
set. The plug should fit securely. Do not
force the connection. See illustration.
The VT9171 is also equipped with a detach-
able belt clip. Align the pins on the inside
edge of the belt clip with the notches on the
side of the VT9171 handset. The belt clip
should snap securely into place. Do not
force the connection. See Illustration

OPERATION
NOTE: Whenever a compatible Headset is connected to the cordless Handset,
the microphone on the Handset will be MUTED. This is done to limit the effect of
background noise.
The following operational characteristics apply to VTECH Headsets. The same
may also apply to other (non-VTECH) compatible headsets, but VTECH assumes
no responsibility for their performance.

INCH
The VTECH brand compatible Head-
set has a monaural design which is
reversible, so you can wear your Head-
set on either the left or right ear, leav-
ing one ear free for room conversa-
tion
The headband can be adjusted to fit
the contour of your head. Using both
hands, slide the headband up or down
so that it rests comfortably on your
head with the speaker cushion cen-
tered against your ear.
For maximum sound quality, the flex-
ible microphone should be positioned
at the corner of your mouth, about one
inch from your mouth.
