Troubleshooting

The messages on the answering system are very difficult to hear.

Press VOL on the telephone base or handset to increase the speaker volume.

The answering system does not record messages.

Make sure the answering system is on.

When the answering machine memory is full, it does not record new messages until some old messages are deleted.

The messages on the answering system are incomplete.

If a caller leaves a very long message, part of it might be lost when the answering system disconnects the call after four minutes.

If the memory on the answering system becomes full during a message, the answering system stops recording and disconnects the call.

If the caller’s voice is very soft, the answering system might stop recording and disconnect the call.

The answering system does not respond to remote commands.

Make sure your remote code is correct (page 9).

Make sure you are calling from a touch-tone telephone. When dialing a number, there should be tones. If there are clicks, then it is not a touch-tone telephone and cannot activate the answering system.

The answering system might not detect the remote access code when your announcement is playing. Wait until the announcement is over before entering the code.

There might be interference on the telephone line you are using. Press the dial pad keys firmly when dialing.

Common cure for electronic equipment.

If the telephone is not responding normally, put the cordless handset in the telephone base. If it does not respond, try the following (in the order listed):

Disconnect the power to the telephone base.

Disconnect the battery on the cordless handset.

Wait a few minutes before connecting power to the telephone base.

Re-install the battery and place the cordless handset in the telephone base or charger.

Wait for the cordless handset to synchronize with the telephone base. Allow up to one minute for this to take place.
