microphone built into the phone's base, rather
than the handset or a headset.
You can switch to and from speakerphone mode
at any time, even during an active call.
Turning the Speakerphone On or Off
Speakerphone is the "default" audio mode unless
you are using a handset or headset.
Manual Toggle
At any time, you can activate/deactivate the
speakerphone by pressing the
(speaker)
button. Think of this as taking the speakerphone
"off-hook" or hanging it up (like a handset). If the
speakerphone is in use, the speaker button will be
lit and a speaker icon
will appear on the
screen.
If you activate the speakerphone while the phone
is idle, you will be presented with a dial tone.
If you are on an active call using the
speakerphone, and you deactivate the
speakerphone, you will hang up the call.
Automatic Activation
Assuming you are
not
using a handset,
and
the
phone is
not
in headset mode:
If you place a call, either by dialing a number or
by selecting a number from the contact list or call
history, the call will be made in speakerphone
mode.
If you press the
Answer
soft key during an
incoming call, the call will be answered in
speakerphone mode.
Incoming page/intercom messages will be played
over the speaker.
Adjusting the Speakerphone Volume
While the speakerphone is active (in-use), press
the
+
or
-
buttons to increase or decrease the
volume.
The new volume setting will persist for future
speakerphone calls unless you change it again.
Muting the Microphone
To mute your microphone while on an active call,
so that the other party cannot hear you, press
the
(mute) button.
Press the
(mute) button again to un-mute
the microphone.
