Flash is a feature that enables you to

answer a call if you have call waiting.

Please contact your local telephone

company for information on subscrib-

ing to this feature. Pressing the FLASH

button while you are having a phone

conversation will pick up the second

conversation and place the first call on

hold. Press the FLASH button again to

continue your conversation with the

first caller.

Last Number Redial

Redial allows you to automatically

redial the last telephone number you

called (up to 32 digits). To use this fea-

ture, listen for dial tone and press the

REDIAL button once.  Your call will be

dialed. The last number dialed will be

stored in the Clarity 500 for you until

you dial another phone number or dis-

connect the telephone from the wall

jack. 

Headset Jack

The unit includes a 2.5 mm headset

jack for connection of a headset. In

the headset mode, the volume of the

headset is controlled adjusting the

Clarity Power Dial.

Headset Operation

Press the HEADSET button to enable
the headset mode. Dial as normal.  

The HEADSET button will illuminate 
to indicate the phone is in the 
headset mode. You may switch 
between headset and handset 
usage by toggling the HEADSET 
button.

Ordering a Headset

In the event you wish to purchase a
headset for your Clarity 500, 
please contact Plantronics at 1-800-
544-4660 for location near you.  
We recommend using the 
Plantronics M110 headset.

Neckloop Jack

A 3.5 mm jack is available for con-

necting a neckloop. The volume to the

neckloop is controlled by the tele-

phone. When the neckloop is plugged

in, the handset is disabled. 

Hearing Aid Compatibility

The handset has a special coil inside of

it to couple the sound to hearing aids

equipped with T-Switches/T-Coils.

Failsafe Power Operation

In the event of a power failure, you

can still make and receive calls, but the

LCD display, CID/PhoneBook opera-

tions, Nightlite, and Extra Loud Ringer

will not function. The phone will ring,

but not as loud.
