Positioning Your Station

You should adjust the position of the station on your desk or table to suit your indi-
vidual needs and, if applicable, maximize the performance of the sound activated
features. When using a speakerphone, the microphone and loudspeaker are farther
from you than when you use a handset. Some positioning tips for speakerphones to
consider include:

· For the microphone to best detect your voice, speak within three feet of it and

face the station.

· 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 speakerphone 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
8212S and 8212N only),

1. GRASP the rear of the pedestal base

firmly with one hand AND LIFT the
rear portion of the telephone upward
with your other hand.

2. LIFT the telephone upward with

o n e h a n d A N D R A I S E t h e
telephone supporting arms upward
with your other hand. (Notice there
are three sets of notches under the
telephone corresponding to the three positions available.)

3. When the telephone is at the desired height, SELECT the closest

pair of notches AND INSERT the supporting arms in the notches.
PRESS DOWN slightly on the telephone UNTIL you feel the
supporting arms snap into place.

Also remember, as with any piece of electronic equipment, your telephone may be
damaged by contact with liquids. So please try to place the telephone in an area that
is free from the danger of spills.
