IN CASE OF DIFFICULTY
If you hear noise in the handset and the buttons don’t work
The base unit and handset might not be set to the same security code. Place
the handset in the base for at least 15 seconds to reset the security code.
If speakerphone conversation sounds distorted
After the phone is powered up, the speakerphone initializes for about
10–15 seconds the first time it is used. Conversation should be clear
after this.
If messages are incomplete
•If a caller leaves a very long message, part of it may be lost when the
system disconnects the call after three 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 you have difficulty hearing messages
Check the speaker VOLUME setting.
If the system does not answer after correct number of rings
•Make sure that the Message Counter in the base is on. If it is off, press
O.
• If Toll Saver is on, the number of rings changes from four to two
when you have new messages waiting. See “Ring Select and Toll
Saver” in the ANSWERING SYSTEM SET-UP section of this manual.
• 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 answers after 10
rings.
If CL appears in Message Counter
If the clock stops running because of a power failure, CL blinks in the
Message Counter to indicate that the clock should be reset. See “Setting
the Clock” in the ANSWERING SYSTEM SET-UP section of this manual.
