•
The microphone volume control may be too high. Lift the amplifier top cover and adjust the microphone volume towards
the left to a lower number.

A beeping noise in your headset may indicate that the batteries in your amplifier are low. Replace both batteries using
only AA size batteries.

•
Make sure the headset stand/on-line indicator is plugged all the way into the port on the rear of the amplifier.

On-line Indicator
17 The on-line indicator flashes red when the telephone is off-hook, indicating that you are on the phone. Rotate the on-line
indicator so the light is seen from the best direction for your work area.
Tips
18 The quick disconnect (QD) allows you freedom of movement without removing the headset. If you disconnect your head-
set at the QD during a conversation, you automatically place your caller on hold. Reconnecting the QD resumes the con-
versation.
