							Using Your Speakerphone 
using Yqur Speakerphone 
A speakerphone gives you the freedom to use your telephone without 
lifting the handset. After initial contact is made, you can carry on a 
telephone conversation and still be free to do other things. Whenever 
the instructions “Lift the handset to talk” appear in this guide, they may 
be ignored if you have a speakerphone. 
During the course of a conversation you can always switch from the 
speakerphone to the handset for privacy. To do this, just lift the handset 
and talk. To return to speakerphone use, press the SPKR button and 
hang up the handset. 
To manually place a call using your speakerphone, 
l press a line button or an intercom button, 
l dial the number, 
l talk toward your speakerphone when called party answers.

l talk toward the telephone when your party answers. 
To answer a call with your speakerphone,

light),

line instead of pressing a line button first.
