USING A HEADSET
You can talk with hands-free convenience

(2.5-mm) plug. Contact your local
RadioShack store for a suitable headset.
To connect the headset, open the rubber
cover on the side of the handset, then insert
the headset’s plug into the jack.

handset’s earpiece and microphone.
• VOL/CID

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 con-
nected, be sure the handset seats prop-
erly.
With a headset connected, make or answer
calls as usual using the keys on the handset.
When you finish using the headset, discon-
nect it from the handset and close the rubber
cover to protect the jack.
You can use a handset holder (available
from your local RadioShack store) to hang
the handset on your belt for greater conve-
nience.
