Your

GIGAPHONE

2-Line cordless Handset is equipped with a 2.5mm Headset Jack

for use with an optional accessory Headset for hands-free operation.

If you choose

to use the Headset option, you must obtain an optional accessory Headset, which is

compatible with the

GIGAPHONE.

To purchase a Headset, call VTECH Customer Service at 1-800-595-9511.

Once you have a compatible 2.5mm Headset, locate the Headset Jack on the

GIGAPHONE

Handset. Connect the plug on the Headset cord to the jack on the cordless

Handset. The plug should fit securely. Do not force the connection.

Operation

NOTE :

Whenever a compatible Headset is

connected to the cordless Handset, the

microphone on the Handset will be muted.

This is done to limit the effect of background

noise.

Many compatible Headsets have a reversible,

monaural design. You can wear your

Headset on either ear, leaving one ear free

for room conversation.

Belt Clip

The

GIGAPHONE

is also equipped with a

detachable belt clip. Align the pins on the

inside edge of the clip with the notches on

the sides of the

GIGAPHONE

Handset.

The belt clip should snap securely into

place. Do not force the connection.
