Speakerphone User Guidelines •Both parties cannot talk at the same time. You must wait for silence out of your loudspeaker before talking. You must stop talking to hear the other party. •Background noise may prevent the sound-activated switches from operating properly. Avoid placing the speakerphone where it will detect sounds from typewriters, keyboards, printers, paging systems, and other equipment. •Speak slightly louder than normal and with a clear, authoritative tone. For the microphone to best detect your voice, speak within three feet of it and face the telephone. •Raising the volume of the loudspeaker makes it easier for the sound-activated switches in your telephone to select the distant party’s voice. Lowering the volume of the loudspeaker makes it easier for the switches to select your voice. •Since the system takes several seconds to provide the best switching, constant sound patterns—such as elongating your words and playing externally-supplied music—may prevent the sound-activated switches from operating properly. •Place the telephone on a hard surface and away from table edges. Do not place the telephone in corners or enclosures. Do not let obstructions come between you and the microphone. Rooms with hard, flat surfaces that reflect sound may affect the sound-activated switches. •If you are using a handset and the other party is using a speakerphone, avoid breathing heavily into your microphone. Avoid other sounds that may affect the distant telephone’s sound-activated switches. •In some situations, such as when either you or the distant party are in a noisy environment, you may have to lift your handset to ensure a clear conversation. •When both you and the distant party use speakerphones, the sound-activated switches can occasionally detect both voices simultaneously, thus blocking out both voices.

Answering Calls 2.1 Answering Outside Calls A call that rings on an outside line will sound long, single-tone bursts and will light the line status light. If the installer enabled ringing line preference at your station, an orange light flashes next to the line that your station will answer when you lift the handset; a red light will flash for any other ringing line. ·When you hear outside ringing and observe a flashing light, answer the call as follows: 1. Lift handset or press line button and speak toward telephone if light is orange, —OR— press button of ringing line if flashing light is red, and speak toward the telephone (lift handset if privacy is desired). 2.2 Answering Intercom Calls An intercom call is one that is made from one system telephone to another.
