Testing Stored Emergency
Numbers
If you store an emergency service’s
number (police department, fire depart-
ment, ambulance) and you choose to
test the stored number, make the test
call during the late evening or early
morning hours to avoid peak demand
periods. Also, remain on the line to ex-
plain the reason for your call.
USING A HEADSET
You can make or answer calls with
hands-free convenience using an op-
tional headset that has a
3 /
32
-inch (2.5
mm) plug. We recommend RadioShack
Cat. No. 43-194.
To connect the headset, insert the head-
set’s plug into the
jack on the top of
the handset.
Notes:
• Connecting a headset disconnects
the handset’s earpiece and micro-
phone.
• If you place the handset on the base
to recharge it while the headset is
connected, be sure the handset
seats properly.
With a headset connected, you make or
answer calls as usual using the keys on
the handset.
RadioShack also sells a leather carrying
case (Cat. No. 43-197) which lets you
hang the handset on your belt for hands-
free conversation when you are working
in the yard or garage.
