Help avoid needleus service check-ups, and at the vame time let those you talk to hear yon without strain. Just remember; Talk clearly, normally^ directly into the telephone, with your lips just one-quarter of an inch front the mouthpiece.

A wall set can't cotne to \-ou ; stand or sit so that your lips .ire directly in front of and close to the mouth- piece. Don't "talk across" it.
