you can switch to the handset by lifting the handset from the cradle. Tap before
replacing the handset in the cradle to switch back to the headset.
To connect and enable the headset: Insert the headset plug into the headset jack (on
the side of the endpoint under the handset), and then do one of the following:
• Tap
(Headset on).
• Tap
(Headset on/off).
To disconnect and disable the headset: Remove the headset plug from the headset
jack, and then do one of the following:
• Tap
(Headset off).

(Headset on/off).
Listening to Background Music
If background music is enabled for your system, you can listen to music through the
external speaker. Your handset must be on-hook to play music. Lifting the handset
stops the music.
To enable or disable background music: Tap
(Background Music on/
off toggle).
Validating Your Location for Placing Emergency Calls
Before using your endpoint, make sure that it is validated in the system for placing
emergency calls. See page 34 for more information on placing emergency calls.
To validate the location: Tap . Your location is validated if the fol-
lowing confirmation notice appears.
If any other message appears, contact your system administrator.
NOTE
Headset mode allows you to use a standard telephony analog head-
set. Plugging a two-pronged PC style headset into the Speaker and
Microphone jacks on the back of the endpoint functionally replaces the
handsfree speaker and microphone. Do not use Headset mode when
using a two-pronged PC style headset.
