Using the Speaker
The Optiset E telephones each have a speaker for receiving calls or
listening to the PhoneMail system. On Optiset E models (Basic and
Advance) that only have a speaker and not a microphone, the user must
lift the handset to speak to the other party.
Note:
The speaker on the Optiset E Entry telephone is used only for
the ringer.

When someone puts a user on hold, the user does not need to hold the
handset while waiting. If the user has a Speaker key, he or she can
press it and replace the handset. The speaker lets the user hear the party
reconnect to the call. If the user does not have a Speaker key, he or she
can press the Hold key, replace the handset, and press the line key.
