USING THE
SPEAKERPHONE

Making a Call

To make a call, press

LINE 1

(or

LINE 2

),

listen for a dial tone, then dial the num-
ber. When you press a line button on the
base, that line’s indicator on the base
lights. The same line’s indicator on the
handset flashes to show that someone is
using that line at the handset.

Note: If a line indicator on the base is
flashing, someone is using that line at
the handset. Press the other line button.

To end a call, press

LINE 1

(or

LINE 2

).

Answering a Call

When a call comes in, the line indicator
for that line flashes at the handset and
base.

To answer a call, press the line button for
the line that is ringing, or simply press
any number key. The indicator for that
line lights at the base and flashes at the
handset.

If you receive a call on one line while you
are using the speakerphone to talk on
the other, the new call’s line indicator

flashes. Press the line button for the in-
coming call. The current call is automati-
cally put on hold.

If both lines have an incoming call,
pressing a number key answers the line
that began ringing first.

Adjusting the Speakerphone
Volume

To set the speakerphone’s volume, slide

VOLUME

on the right side of the base.

Using Mute

While talking on the speakerphone, you
can temporarily turn off the ET-687’s mi-
crophone by pressing

MUTE

so the other

party cannot hear you. The line indicator
flashes red when a line is muted.

Press

MUTE

again to resume your con-

versation.

Note:

MUTE

does not work during an in-

tercom call.
