It makes a few beeps and noises, but it only talks when you press "speak." The volume can be turned down.

Hi Tammy. There is an on off button on the headset. It actually turns off the unit, so you would not continue to hear your customer, but I do use it for muting if it's brief. Hope that helps.

There's a Hi/Low switch inside the battery compartment that turns the volume down. I don't know if the sound can be turned off completely.

There is a mute button on phone base. And you can turn vol. all the way down on handset.

Ha ha. Of course it has a mute button! Only it's called "stop". Or you can just unplug it.

Yes you can. I have closed mine many times and talked. Have never had anyone complain that they cannot hear me. Hope this helps.

I think the volume is loud. I usually turn the volume down because it's so loud. I use the speaker all the time and have no problems hearing.

Actually, yes! I have the product manual in front of me. The default setting plays the incoming messages over the base speaker, but you can turn that off by turning off Call Screen in the settings menu. (It will still record messages, just not play them out loud.) Another way to achieve this is to turn on Silent Mode, which also turns off the ringer. A nice feature is you can set Silent Mode indefinitely or for 1-9 hours, so if you're having a party you won't have to remember to turn the ringer back on later.

The sound can be changed from a series of beeps to a tune. I'm not sure if it can be turned off. I believe that the sound is less annoying than the average cellphone.

It's not the focus!! It's the overly aggressive noise reduction! No way to turn it off unfortunately.

There is no way to turn the volume off when it is hooked to the tv. I have tried everything. I contacted Orei and they said to mute the unit, but if you do that you mute the sound on the tv as well. The way I have gotten around this problem is I plug the earbuds that came with unit into the headphone jack. The sound will go into them and you don't have sound of the unit and tv going at the same time. I hope this helps. :)

If you raise the mic up it will automatically mute. That's what I used. I don't recall if there is a button or not

Hello friend you can really answer without using the headphones or headset, when you enter the call on the clock display an icon of a phone tap and you can talk as loudly. But privacy of the conversation does not exist, we recommend you use the bluetooth

That is not a feature I have noticed. I have always turned it off when done listening and don't remember seeing it with info I received when purchased.

How difficult is it to get to the menu and turn the mute on and off while on the call?

You can turn off the music, but it keeps talking/playing for about 10 seconds (annoying!)
