Depress “ON/OFF” button until the color indicator is visible.

Remove handset. If dial tone is not heard in the headset, move

slide switch to each position in turn. When a clear dial tone is heard,

go to the next step. If no dial tone is heard in any switch position,

move the switch to position 5 and install the AC/DC converter as

described above.

Adjusting the Transmit Level Dial

You may need to adjust the sound transmission level of your head-

set (what your caller hears). Before attempting this adjustment, com-

plete the installation of your headset. If needed, return to this section

to adjust the Transmit Level Dial.

Place a call to a friend and talk while rotating the dial with the screw-

driver. (FIGURE 5) Continue rotating until the optimum sound tone

and level are reached. The sound level should be the same as when

using the handset. You can check it by putting the handset to your

ear and then pushing the “ON/OFF” button so the indicator is black.

Once set, you do not have to readjust this dial unless you change

telephones.

Return the plastic mini-screwdriver to the bracket for future use.

USAGE

Quick Disconnect

™

Your headset model is equipped with a Quick Disconnect module.

This feature allows you to place a call on hold without removing

phone. Your conversation is quickly resumed by reconnecting the

Quick Disconnect.

Before attempting to use your headset, be sure that the two Quick

Disconnect halves are connected.

To put your call on hold, grasp the Quick Disconnect as shown and

pull straight apart. (FIGURE 6)

To resume your conversation, reconnect the two halves of the Quick

Disconnect.

FCC REGISTRATION INFORMATION

In compliance with FCC Rules and Regulations, Part 68, you are advised that:

1. Before installing your headset, you must notify the owner of the host equipment (i.e., leasing company).

Provide them with the headset registration number. The registration number is printed on the headset

registration label.

2. If the installation of your headset requires the installation of a headset jack/JackSet

that connects to the

internal wiring of leased telephones or other devices, such connections can only be made with permission

of the owner of the host equipment.

3. In case of trouble, disconnect your headset to determine the trouble source. If the headset is the source,

modifications or repairs can only be made by the headset manufacturer or its authorized representatives.

SERVICE INFORMATION

Should you encounter difficulties or be uncertain about proper installation, please follow the procedures below:

• Replace the faulty amplifier with a working amplifier. If the problem persists, the problem is probably not in the

amplifier, but in the equipment to which it is connected.

• If the replacement clears the problem the trouble is in the amplifier.

Should your amplifier fail to operate properly, and you wish to obtain service under the Warranty specified in your

agreement with AVAYA, please contact your AVAYA representative. When returning the amplifier for service, it is

not necessary to include the headset.
