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 talk with hands-free conve-
nience using an optional headset that
has a
3 /
32
-inch (2.5-mm) plug. Contact
your local RadioShack store for a suit-
able headset.
To connect the headset, open the rub-
ber cover marked on the side of the
handset, then insert the headset’s plug
into the jack.
Notes:
• Connecting a headset disconnects
the handset’s earpiece and micro-
phone.
• VOL . or . on the handset also
controls the connected headset’s
volume.
• 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 can
make or answer calls as usual using the
speakerphone or the keys on the hand-
set.
You can use a handset holder (available
from your local RadioShack store) to
hang the handset on your belt for great-
er convenience.
When you finish using the headset, dis-
connect it from the handset and close
the rubber cover to protect the jack.
