Note
Even when you set the L1 or L2 RINGER LEVEL switch on the base unit to OFF,

Tips
• To inform you of an incoming call, the line button lights on and off according
to the ring signal even when you set the L1 or L2 RINGER LEVEL switch on
the base unit to OFF.
• If there is an incoming call while on the intercom, the base unit will ring at a
low level even when the L1 or L2 RINGER LEVEL switch on the base unit is
set to OFF.
To obtain the best speakerphone performance
• You may not be able to hear the other party’s voice in a noisy place.
Therefore, use the speakerphone in a quiet room.
• Do not bring your hand or other object too close to the microphone
or you will hear a shrill noise (“feedback”).
• When the speaker volume is loud, or the base unit has been placed
close to a wall, you may find that the volume drops suddenly. This
is due to a circuit in the telephone designed to protect against
feedback. In such cases, lower the speaker volume slightly.
