Troubleshooting

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 /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 (page 21).

If the memory is full or the system is off, the system will answer after 10 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 (page 59). 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 22).
