Page 24 Introduction to Your Treo™ 270 Communicator
Using the headset
You can connect a headset for hands-free operation. Your Treo is compatible with the included
headset and other headsets listed at www.handspring.com. If you need to use your phone while
driving and this is permitted in your area, we recommend using a headset.
Note: Treo is not compatible with three-pin (also called three-pole) style headsets. You can
determine whether a headset is a three-pin headset by counting the number of silver
rings on the headset pin. A three-pin headset has three rings.
To use the headset:
1. Connect the headset plug to the headset jack on the side of your communicator.
2. Place the speaker in your ear.
3. Press the headset button to perform any of the following functions:
■ Answer an incoming call (including an incoming call waiting call).
■ Switch between two active calls.
■ Place the second call on hold when you have two active calls.
■ Hang up an active call.
Connecting the HotSync cable
The HotSync cable that comes with your Treo enables you to charge your communicator battery
and to synchronize the information on your communicator using HotSync technology.
Note: If your computer does not have a USB port, or it uses Windows 95 or Windows NT, you
need a serial HotSync cable to connect to your computer. You can purchase a serial
HotSync cable from www.handspring.com.
