OWNER’S MANUAL — Please read before using this equipment.
Your RadioShack Handsfree Speakerphone Kit is
easy to use. It turns your cellular or PCS phone
into a speakerphone in your car or truck. Just plug
it into any standard (negative ground) 12-volt pow-
er source, such as a cigarette-lighter socket, con-
nect it to your phone, plug in the microphone, and it
is ready to use. It even automatically recharges the
phone’s battery.
•
•
You might have to turn the ignition key to
Accessory or ON to power the cigarette-
lighter socket.
Note: Disconnecting and reconnecting the cord
does not change the mode.
In handsfree mode, the phone’s internal micro-
phone and speaker are disabled and the phone op-
erates like a speakerphone. The POWER indicator
lights steadily green. You can talk and listen with-
out holding the phone.
If your vehicle’s cigarette-lighter socket is
difficult to reach, outlet adapters are avail-
able at your local RadioShack store.
2. Plug the phone connector, located on the end
of the coiled cord, into the slot on the base of
the phone. TOP should face the same direc-
tion as the keypad. The connector will only fit
one way; do not force it.
In privacy mode, the phone operates normally and
the internal microphone and speaker are active.
The POWER indicator turns red. Pick up the phone
and use it like any other handset.
Warning: Always wear your seat belt. Never place
a phone where it could damage or interfere with
the operation of any passive safety device (airbags
or seat belts).
3. Plug the microphone into the MIC jack located
Note: Anytime the indicator is lit, power is on and
the phone’s battery is charging.
Notes:
on the side of the speakerphone.
• For safety and the best performance, hold
your phone upright with a dash-mounted
phone holder, available at your local
RadioShack store.
Note: Replacement microphones (RSU
12294229) are available through your local
RadioShack store.
Battery Discharge
If your cigarette-lighter socket or power outlet re-
mains on when the vehicle is turned off, and you
plan to leave your vehicle for more than a week,
unplug the speakerphone to prevent excessive bat-
tery discharge and difficulty starting your vehicle.
4. You can attach the microphone to either your
car’s visor or your clothing.
•
To avoid lockup of the speakerphone system,
always disconnect the speakerphone kit from
power before starting your vehicle.
To use the supplied visor clip to attach the
microphone to the visor, tuck the wire into the
space between the windshield glass and trim,
or under the trim, whichever is easier. Run the
wire down to the dash and around the dash
edge, being careful not to put the wire where it
can be pinched by the door. Plug the micro-
phone’s plug into the side of the speaker-
phone. Make sure the microphone is pointed
toward you.
HANDSFREE OPERATION
Outgoing Calls
IMPORTANT
VOLUME ADJUSTMENT: Please note that for optimal
use, the earpiece volume must be set to maximum. It is
important that the volume is adjusted in two places. First
set the phone’s volume and then set the volume on the
speakerphone, using the side buttons.
With the speakerphone set to handsfree, dial a
number as you would normally, and speak in a nor-
mal voice. When you complete your call, press
END.
KEYPAD TONES: When placing a call, you will not al-
ways hear the touch-tones through the speakerphone.
This is a normal condition and not a defect.
Incoming Calls
To use the small supplied lapel clip to attach
the microphone to your clothing, attach the
clip about 6 inches below your chin. Leave a
comfortable length of cord between the micro-
phone and the speaker. Wrap up the excess
cord so it does not interfere with vehicle oper-
ation.
When an incoming call rings on the speakerphone,
press TALK and begin speaking. Press END when
you are finished.

PREPARATION
Note: If you are unable to make a call in
handsfree mode, contact your phone store to
update the phone’s software.
To adjust the speakerphone volume to a comfort-
able level, move the volume control toward the
POWER indicator (louder), or away from the POW-
ER indicator (softer).
1. Insert the speakerphone’s plug into your vehi-
cle’s 12-volt power source or cigarette-lighter
socket. The green POWER indicator lights.
Turn the speaker grill toward you to allow at
least 2 inches of clearance so you can use the
mode switch on the back.
Changing Modes
You can use the speakerphone in either handsfree
or privacy mode. To change modes, briefly insert
your finger in the mode-switching finger groove on
the back of the speaker. The switch is an electronic
optical device. When your finger breaks the beam
the indicator changes color.
Lockup
Be sure to unplug the speakerphone before start-
ing the vehicle, or you may cause it to lock up. If
you cannot change the mode for either the phone
or the speakerphone, the circuitry has locked up.
