Speakerphone mode
Features
Speakerphone mode offers you the following advantages:

the handset to your ear.
Speakerphone mode can be used effectively up to a background noise level of
50 dB (A).
Activating speakerphone mode
Speakerphone mode can be activated during a call, when dialling or when an-
swering a call:
d
Press the speakerphone key. Inform the other party when you want to activate
the speakerphone to let others listen in.
Switching between speakerphone and handset mode
d

Page 57.
Make sure you switch back to handset mode before you return the tele-
phone directly to your ear. In this way you can avoid causing damage to
your hearing.
If you wish to replace the handset in the charging shell during a call,
for example, because the battery is flat, hold down the Speakerphone key
to prevent the call from being disconnected.
