To obtain the best speakerphone performance
� You may not be able to hear the other party�s voice in a noisy place. Therefore, use the speakerphone in a quiet room. � Do not bring your hand or other object too close to the microphone or you will hear a shrill noise (�feedback�). � When the speaker volume is loud, or the base phone has been placed close to a wall, you may find that the volume drops suddenly. This is due to a circuit in the telephone designed to protect against feedback. In such cases, lower the speaker volume slightly.
