1.1.1 POSITIONING YOUR SPEAKERPHONE
You should adjust the position of the speakerphone on your desk or
table to suit your individual needs and maximize the performance of
the sound activated features. When using your speakerphone, the
microphone and loudspeaker are farther from you than when you use
a handset. Some positioning tips to consider include:
• For the microphone to best detect your voice, speak within three
feet of it and face the speakerphone.
• Background noise may prevent the sound-activated switches
from operating properly. Avoid placing the speakerphone where
it will detect sounds from typewriters, keyboards, printers,
paging systems, and other equipment.
• Place the telephone on a hard surface and away from table
edges. Do not place the telephone in corners or enclosures. Do
not let obstructions come between you and the microphone.
If you are using an Impact SCS model, your telephone has an
adjustable pedestal to allow you to select the most comfortable
viewing angle. When you receive the telephone, the pedestal is in its
lowest position—flush against the pedestal.
• To adjust the pedestal (Models 8312S, 8324S and 8324F
only),
1. GRASP the rear of the pedestal
base firmly with one hand AND
LIFT the rear portion of the tele-
phone upward with your other
hand.
2. LIFT the telephone upward with
one hand AND RAISE the tele-
phone supporting arms upward
with your other hand. (Notice there
are three sets of notches under the
telephone corresponding to the three positions available.)
