Hi William,You didn't mention turning on the adaptor, so if you didn't, this is how you do it. There is a ring shaped switch that surrounds the center button that has what feel like serrations It turns quite hard so take both thumbnails and turn counterclockwise until you feel a definite click. There will be a blue flashing light (you may need sighted help). The switch turns easier with use. Also, make sure that the volume on the Bookport is up and the volume on the headset is up (the front ridge shaped button on the headset). Hopefully it will be that you just didn't have the adaptor switch on.

Can one of you good folks who uses these phones contact me offlist please? I just bought a pair for my wife's use, and I have no clue what I'm doing. I think both parts are charged, and when I slide what I think is the on/off switch on the headset, I get a low tone after about ten seconds or so. I'v scanned the manual, and learned a little, but obviously not enough. So, help will be much appreciated.
