Incomplete messages

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

If the caller pauses for more than seven seconds, the system stops recording and disconnects the call.

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

If the caller's voice is very soft, the system may stop recording and disconnects the call.

If toll saver is activated, the number of rings changes to 2 when you have new messages waiting (see page 32).

In some cases, the system may be affected by the ringing system used by the local telephone company.

If the memory is full or the system is off, the system will answer after 10 rings.

Make sure to enter your remote access code correctly (see page 36).

Make sure you are calling from a touch-tone phone. When you dial a number, you should hear tones. If you hear clicks, the phone is not a touch-tone telephone and cannot activate the answering system.

The answering system may not detect the remote access code while your announcement is playing. Try waiting until the announcement is over before entering the code.

There may be noise or interference on the phone line you are using. Press dial-pad keys firmly.
