Does anyone know how to turn off the annoying semi-male voice that announces "Power on - connected", Power off - disconnected" and "Battery Low. YUCK!

No, I do not know how to turn off the voice. But the voice does not bother me.

No I do not know how to turn it, but I have no problem with it and more so it does not bother me!!

There is a button switch that you can use to put the unit in the " silent" mode....not audible to humans.Works great in either mode. I only use audible mode to periodically verify batteries. Good Luck.

Press and hold the power button for approx. 3 seconds. A quick touch of the power button, after the unit is turned on, will switch between 2 modes. One mode is high the other is low. Your preference will depend on your surrounding background sounds. I.E., restaurant setting as opposed to more quiet conversation. It takes a little practice however, you'll find the ability to switch from high to low or vice versa, is very handy in controlling the sound quality. To turn the unit off, press & hold the power button, you'll hear a tone as the unit shuts down.

The talking ID can be shut off by using the menu. I haven't shut mine off because there are times I can't get to the phone right away and it comes in handy.

I just hold power button till it says "power on" to me at obscene volume. make sure you unplug before turning on, i noticed it doesn't like to do anything while charging.

There is no on/off button, at least to completely power it down. However there is a button that can mute/unmute the sound without having to use the windows sound controls.

Hold the top right hand button down for like 5 seconds. It will make a, what I call a "power down" noise.

Let me understand your question. You want to turn the device off? Just hold down for 3-5 sec the power button.

Sondra, there appears to be no way to defeat the "MUTING" on-screen display. If it is too bothersome you could always turn the volume all the way down. It only takes about three seconds.

I just press the power button on mine until it turns off. It makes two sounds, the first time it makes a sound you have to keep holding down the button until it makes the second sound, after that it should turn off.

i think there is a turn (off /on) tab on the back side. or simply unplug it. i always leave mine on but its up to you.

Thanks Daisy for your comment. After dealing with having to take the battery out to "unfreeze" and to wake it up, which as you can imagine, is a heck of an inconvenience when you just want to make a call, I sent it back. Will keep searching.

Mr. Lovelace's solution to cancel the demo mode (remove all batteries) worked for me. I must say, though, this is a very peculiar design and nothing in the package will tell you that this is necessary. If it were not for other consumers commenting in places like this, you would never know how to cancel out the demo mode. Energizer should address this!

It is not the charger. I went into settings>sound>notifications>silent. That worked for me.

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.
