Troubleshooting

Difficulty hearing messages.

•Press VOLUME/p to increase the telephone base speaker volume.

•Press pDIR/VOLUME to adjust the message playback volume on a handset.

System does not answer after the correct number of rings.

•Make sure that the answering system is on. ANS ON should show on the handset and the /ANSWER ON light on the telephone base should be on.

•If toll saver is activated, the number of rings changes to two when you have new messages stored (pages 73).

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

•In some cases, the answering system is affected by the ringing system used by your telephone service provider.

•If you subscribe to voicemail service, change the number of rings so that your answering system answers before your voicemail answers (pages 73). To determine how many rings activate your voicemail, contact your telephone service provider.

•If there is a fax machine connected to the same telephone line, try disconnecting the fax machine. If that solves the problem, consult your fax machine documentation for information on compatibility with answering systems.

System does not respond to remote commands.

•Make sure to enter your remote access code correctly (page 74).

•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 interference on the phone line you are using. Press dialing keys firmly.
