OWNER’S MANUAL — Please read before using this equipment.

Your RadioShack Handsfree Speakerphone Kit is easy to use. The kit turns your cellular or 
PCS phone into a speakerphone in your car or truck. Just plug it into any standard (negative 
ground) 12-volt power source, connect it to your phone, and plug in the microphone. It even 
automatically recharges the phone’s battery.

1. Insert the speakerphone’s plug into your 

vehicle’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. 

±

2. Plug the phone connector on the end of 

the coiled cord into the slot on the base 
of your phone, with TOP facing the same 
direction as the keypad. The connector 
only fits one way; do not force it. 

±

3. Plug the microphone into the MIC jack.

4. Attach the supplied microphone to your 

car’s visor using the supplied visor clip or 
to your clothing using the supplied lapel 
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 microphone’s plug into the MIC 
jack, then point the microphone toward 
you. 

To attach the microphone to your 
clothing, attach the clip about 6 inches 
below your chin. Leave a comfortable 

length of cord between the microphone 
and the speaker. Wrap up the excess 
cord so it does not interfere with vehicle 
operation. 

±

5. Turn the phone on if it has not turned on 

automatically. The speakerphone beeps 
and the POWER indicator lights.

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. When your finger breaks the beam, 
the indicator changes color.

In handsfree mode, the phone’s internal 
microphone and speaker are disabled and 
the phone operates like a speakerphone. The 
POWER indicator lights steadily green. You 
can talk and listen without holding the phone. 
±

In privacy mode, the phone operates 
normally. The POWER indicator turns red. 
Pick up the phone and use it like any other 
handset.

Preparation

If your vehicle’s cigarette-lighter socket is 
difficult to reach, outlet adapters are available 
at your RadioShack store or online at 
RadioShack.com. 

For safety and the best performance, hold the 
phone upright with a phone holder, available 
at RadioShack.

To avoid system lockup, always disconnect 
the speakerphone kit from power before 
starting your vehicle.

You might have to turn the ignition key to 
Accessory or ON to power the cigarette-
lighter socket.

Replacement microphones are available at 
RadioShack.

To avoid feedback, position the microphone 
so it is not directly in line with the speaker. 
You might need to turn the speaker slightly.

Anytime the indicator is lit, power is on and 
the phone’s battery is charging.

Changing Modes

If you are unable to make a call in handsfree 
mode, contact your phone store to update the 
phone’s software.

Disconnecting and reconnecting the cord 
does not change the mode.

."%#76+10".

If your cigarette-lighter socket or power outlet 
remains 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 battery discharge and difficulty 
starting your vehicle.
