ET-007 900-MHz Handsfree Cordless Headset System
(430-0007)                 Preparation                Faxback Doc. # 59731

Follow the steps in "Connecting the Headset Charger, Wireless Headset and 
Infrared Remote Dial Card" in Faxback Doc. # 59730 to install the battery 
in the headset.

Charging The Battery Pack

After you install a battery pack, let the battery charge for about 24 
hours before you use the headset the first time.  The charging indicator 
on the headset lights red.

The headset charges whenever it is on the headset charger.  You can charge 
the battery at any time, but you must charge the battery when the IN USE/ 
BATT. LOW indicator lights red (or flashes yellow when using the headset).

Note:  If the charging indicator does not light when you place the headset 
       on the headset charger, be sure the battery is installed correctly 
       inside the battery compartment and the plug is securely connected 
       on the headset charger.  Also, be sure the headset is placed 
       properly on the headset charger.

Installing The Backup Battery Pack

Your phone requires a 3.6V rechargeable Ni-MH battery pack (not supplied) 
for backup power when AC power fails.  In case of a power failure, you can 
make and receive calls for up to four hours with a fully charged battery 
pack.

Follow these steps to install a battery pack in the base.

1.  Push down the tab of the battery compartment cover (located above the 
    keypad on the corded phone's base) and lift off the cover.
 
2.  Place the battery pack in the battery compartment with the battery's 
    connectors in contact with the battery compartment's connectors.
 
3.  Replace the cover.

When you install a battery in the base, the SPARE BATTERY indicator lights 
and the battery pack automatically begins charging. The battery pack takes 
about 24 hours to fully charge.

Setting The Dialing Mode

Set TONE/PULSE on the bottom of the corded phone for the type of service 
you have, either tone or pulse (rotary).  If you are not sure which type 
you have, do this simple test.

1.  Set TONE/PULSE to TONE.
 
2.  Lift the handset and listen for a dial tone.
 
3.  Press any number except 0 and 1.
 
    Note: If your phone system requires that you dial an access code (9, 
          for example) before you dial an outside number, do not press 
          the access code either.
 
    If the dial tone stops, you have touch-tone service.  If the dial tone
    continues, you have pulse service.
 
4.  If you have pulse service, set TONE/PULSE to PULSE.

Changing The Ringer Tone

There are four different ringer tones you can choose or you can turn off 
the ringer.  The ringer system is separate for the corded phone and 
wireless headset.  Follow these steps to change the ringer tone:

1.  Make sure the phone is on-hook.  Press PROGRAM on the base.
 
2.  Press #, then 1 for the base ringer tone, or 2 for the headset ringer 
    tone.
 
3.  Press 1, 2, 3 or 4.  You hear the corresponding ringer tone.  To turn 
    off the headset's ringer, press 0.
 
4.  Press PROGRAM to select the desired ringer tone.  A confirmation ring 
    sounds, indicating that you successfully set the desired ringer tone.

Setting The Ringer Volume 

To adjust the ringer volume on the corded base phone, slide the switch on 
the right side of the base to RINGER OFF, LOW or HI.

If you do not want the ringer to sound, slide the switch to OFF.  You can 
make calls with the ringer off, and you can answer calls if you hear 
another phone on the same phone line ring.

Note:  To temporarily turn off the headset's ringer while the phone rings, 
       press VOL /\ or \/ on the side of the headset, or VOLUME /\ or \/
       on the remote dial card. The headset's ringer turns back on when
       you hang up the phone.

Adjusting The Headset

1.  Press VOL \/ to set the volume to the lowest level, then place the
    headset on your head with the microphone in the front.
 
2.  If necessary, adjust the headset band on both sides by pulling down or
    pushing up on each end until it fits with almost no pressure on your 
    ears or the top of your head. 
 
3.  Pull down the microphone, adjusting it to about even with your chin.
    Experiment until you find the most comfortable position.

    CAUTION:  The microphone swivels on the headset.  Do not bend the
              microphone while you adjust it.

    Note: If you hear a dial tone when you pull down the microphone, press
          OFF on the infrared remote dial card.

When you are not using the headset, place it on the headset charger.
Otherwise, you might need to repeat these adjustments.

Listening Safely

To protect your hearing, follow these guidelines when you use the headset.

  Set the volume to the lowest setting before listening.  After you begin
  listening, adjust the volume to a comfortable level.

  Do not listen at extremely high volume levels.  Extended high volume 
  listening can lead to permanent hearing loss.

  Once you set the volume, do not increase it.  Over time, your ears adapt
  to the volume level, so a volume level that does not cause discomfort
  might still damage your hearing.
