Bone conduction earpiece (KX-TGA717 only)

The handset features a bone conduction earpiece that uses vibrations to create sound during your telephone conversations. For proper operation press the bone conduction earpiece against your face near the ear. Normally, sound enters the ear canal and vibrates the eardrum. People feel the vibration within the inner ear and comprehend it as it is received by the auditory nerve.

Place the bone conduction earpiece against your face (not your ear). Try different locations to find which location works best. Start with the temple area.

Note:

L Do not place the bone conduction

earpiece on a hearing aid. Howling or other interference may be heard.

L The effectiveness of the bone conduction

earpiece will vary by the type and degree of hearing loss of the user.

Preparation

L As sound is generated by vibration, users

with normal hearing can use the handset by placing the bone conduction earpiece against the ear, as an ordinary telephone.

L If the bone conduction earpiece gets dusty

or greasy, clean it with a soft, dry cloth.
