Making calls – enhanced functions
Speakerphone mode
Features
Speakerphone mode offers you the following advantages:
• Other persons can listen to and participate in the call.
• Your hands are free.
• When dialing, you can hear the ringtone, for example, without having to lift the
handset to your ear.
Speakerphone mode can be used effectively up to a background noise level of
50 dB (A), e.g. office environment.
Activating speakerphone mode
Speakerphone mode can be activated during a call, when dialing or when an-
swering a call:
d
Press the Speakerphone key. The Speakerphone key lights up. Inform the other
party when you want to activate the speakerphone to let others listen in.
Switching between speakerphone and handset mode
d
Press the Speakerphone key. The handset switches from speakerphone to
handset mode or vice versa.
The Speakerphone key lights up if speakerphone mode is active. It does not light
up if speakerphone mode is deactivated and handset mode is activated.
Setting the speakerphone volume
The volume can be set during a call
Note:
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.
Note:
If you wish to replace the handset in the charging shell during a call,
for example, because the batteries are flat, hold down the Speakerphone
key to prevent the call from being cleared down.
