Speakerphone mode

Features
Speakerphone mode offers you the following advantages:
• Other persons can listen to and participate in the
call.
• Your hands are free.
• When dialing, you can hear the ringtone, for exam-
ple, without having to lift the handset to your ear.
Speakerphone mode can be used effectively up to a back-
ground noise level of 50 dB (A), e.g. office environment.
Activating speakerphone mode
Speakerphone mode can be activated during a call,
when dialing or when answering a call:
d
Press the Speakerphone key. The Speakerphone key
lights up. Inform the other party when you want to acti-
vate the speakerphone to let others listen in.
Note:
Make sure you switch back to handset mode be-
fore you return the telephone directly to your ear.
In this way you can avoid causing damage to your
hearing.
Switching between speakerphone and handset
mode
d
Press the Speakerphone key. The handset switches
from speakerphone to handset mode or vice versa.
The Speakerphone key lights up if speakerphone mode
is active. It does not light up if speakerphone mode is
deactivated and handset mode is activated.
Note:
If you wish to replace the handset in the charg-
ing shell during a call, forexample, because the
batteries are flat, hold down the Speakerphone
key to prevent the call from being cleared down.
