4.6 Range information
The range of the handset is about 50 metres in enclosed areas and about 300
metres in the open air.
If you are too far away from the base station, you will hear several signal
tones. In this case, go back closer to the base station, as otherwise the call
will be interrupted.
4.7 Muting the microphone in the handset
You can switch off the microphone in the handset during a call using the
(Sec.) button. It is thus possible to speak without the other party hearing you.
The loudspeaker in the handset remains switched on and you can continue to
hear the other party.
The secrecy button is only operative when a connection has first been made
using the number pad or the speed dial memory.
1. Press the (Sec.) button while a call is being made. The operating
status indicator on the handset will flash.
2. To switch the microphone on again, press the (Sec.) button once
more. The operating status indicator comes on again and you can
continue the call as normal.
4.8 Adjusting the listening volume
If the receiver volume is too quiet or too loud for you, you can change this to
suit your requirements.
While a call is being made, repeatedly press the
(Vol.) button until the
required volume has been set. There are a total of three volume settings
available - "soft - medium - loud".
The facility for changing the listening volume is only operative when a
connection has first been made.
