speaker phone mode, that is, after you press the (speaker) button.
For best results, keep the area around the microphone free of
obstructions. To minimize the effects of background noise, the
microphone is directional; it performs best when you are directly in front
of the telephone.

assign features to specific buttons. See “Programmable Access Buttons”
and “Status Lights for System Appearance Buttons” later in this chapter.
10 Speaker button (3101SP only) — Enables you to use the speaker
phone feature. Press the button before you dial the call, when your
telephone is ringing, or while a call is in progress. To turn the speaker off
and resume the conversation, pick up the handset.
The 3Com 3101SP Basic Telephone includes a microphone and supports
speaker phone operation. The 3Com 3101 Basic Telephone does not
support speaker phone operation and it does not have a
button.

12 Volume down — Lowers the volume of the ringer, the speaker, or the

are saying during a telephone call, although you can still hear them. Press
the
button to turn off the telephone’s mouthpiece when you are
using the handset or the microphone (3101SP only) when your telephone
is in speaker phone mode. To turn off the Mute feature, press the
button again. The indicator lamp is lit when the Mute feature is enabled.
