Handsfree Calling
By using the Ericsson portable or vehicle handsfree
solutions, you can be on the phone without having to
use your hands to hold it.
The I 888 WORLD allows you to change the default set-
tings for the handsfree-related functions so that they fit
your own requirements.
Selecting Answering Mode
The submenu ‘Answering mode’ includes two func-
tions: ‘Any key’ and ‘Auto’.
• The ‘Any key’ function:
If you use the phone with handsfree equipment
and this function is turned on, you can answer an
incoming call by pressing any key, except the
NO
key.
• The ‘Auto’ function:
If you choose the automatic answering mode, an
incoming call will be answered automatically after
one ring signal, if the phone is used with hands-
free equipment.
To select Answering Mode:
From the ‘Settings’ menu, select ‘Answering
mode’.
Choose preferred answering mode using the
navigation key.
To change the setting of the function you have
chosen, press YES.
To confirm your setting, press YES again.
Other Handsfree-Related Settings
Apart from the settings mentioned above, you can
change the following settings when using handsfree
equipment:
• ‘Ring level’
• ‘Ear volume’
• ‘Light’
Each of these settings can be specified separately when
you have your I 888 WORLD connected to handsfree
equipment and when you use the phone as a handheld
unit. This means that if you make one of these settings
when the phone is connected to handsfree equipment,
the settings when it is handheld are not affected and
vice versa.
To change a setting:
Connect the phone to the handsfree equipment.
Change the setting according to the instructions
in the chapter ‘Personalizing Your Phone’.
Note! The active flip can be temporarily disabled by pressing
and holding the side volume key while opening/closing
the flip.
