If you are already on a call, you can switch from the handset to the

speaker and microphone (on an MLS-34D, MLS-12D, or MLS-12 phone)

by pressing [

Spkr ] and hanging up the handset. Conversely, if you are

using the speaker and microphone and want to switch to the handset, lift

the handset and the speaker and microphone will turn off.

voice-signaled calls without lifting the handset (see below).

Hands-Free Answer on Intercom (HFAI)

When you receive a voice-signaled intercom call (are “paged”), your phone

beeps to indicate that your speaker has been turned on automatically, and you

hear the caller’s voice over your phone’s speaker. If you leave the microphone

on your phone on all the time, you can simply start talking when you hear the

caller, without lifting the handset. This feature is called Hands-Free Answer on

Intercom.

NOTE:

Since MLS-6 and MLC-6 phones do not have microphones, you must lift the

handset to answer voice-signaled calls to those phones.

Any user in the system can make a voice-signaled call to a system telephone by

pressing [

✳ ] and then dialing an extension number. (You can make a

voice-signaled call from either a system phone or a standard phone. However,

if you try to make a voice-signaled call to a standard phone, it will ring.)

NOTES:

The HFAI feature can only be turned on or off when your phone is idle.

Muting your voice while you are on a call only turns off the microphone for

the duration of the call.

If HFAI is on and you are already on a call, you will not hear any other

pages to your extension.

Speakerphone Performance Tips

The speakerphone on your MLS-34D, MLS-12D, or MLS-12 telephone has a

sensitive sound-activated switch. Room acoustics and background noise can

affect the proper operation of the speakerphone. To ensure that your

speakerphone works effectively, follow these guidelines:

■

Avoid placing your phone in areas with high background noise caused

by loud voices, radios, printers, copiers, typewriters, other noisy office

equipment, and heater and air conditioning fans.

Avoid rustling papers near the microphone (lower right corner of your

phone).

Avoid talking before the other person is finished speaking. When you

both talk at the same time, only one person’s voice comes through.

When talking, always face your phone and stay within two feet of it.

Place your phone at least six inches away from the edge of your desk.
