Calling from Your Car 71
Calling from Your Car
By using the Ericsson portable or vehicle handsfree solutions, you can be on
the phone without using your hands to hold it.
If you use a Vehicle Handsfree Solution, you can choose between two differ-
ent ways in which your phone can handle the speech. This is done in the
Handsfree
sub-menu.
Handsfree Type 1
Handsfree Type 1 means that the phone handles the call in semi-duplex mode.
This means that you cannot speak at the same time as the person at the other
end of the line. Use this alternative only if Type 2 does not work properly.
Handsfree Type 2
Handsfree Type 2 means that the phone handles the call in full duplex mode.
This considerably increases the quality of speech, since you do not have to
wait until it is your turn to speak, and the speech becomes clearer.
For Handsfree Type 2 to work properly, your phone adapts to the sound envi-
ronment around the handsfree equipment. This adaptation might take a few
calls. During this learning phase, the person you are talking to might hear an
echo of his or her own voice (because the sound goes from the speaker into
the microphone again). However, this disappears as the other person speaks. If
the echo lasts longer than the first few calls, try Handsfree Type 1 instead.
Note! More sophisticated Vehicle Handsfree solutions automatically provide
full duplex. They also disable the choice between Handsfree Type 1 and 2,
since the choice becomes superfluous when using this kind of equipment; you
always get the best quality of speech possible.
