L As sound is generated by vibration, users

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.
