To make use of something means to use it, often deliberately or to gain an advantage.
Hear it in real life
Do you ever use the gym at work?
Yes, I make use of it when I finish early.
I make use of my lunch break to call my mum.
The mistake everyone makes
Not: I make use ‸ the lunch break to call my mum.
Say: I make use of the lunch break to call my mum.
The expression needs “of” before the thing being used.
