Troubleshooting

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 telephone line you are using. Press dial pad keys firmly.

The answering system does not record messages.

Make sure the answering system is on (see Answering mode on page 16).

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

If you subscribe to voicemail service, change the number of rings so that your answering system answers before your voicemail answers (see Answering system and voicemail on page 41). 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.

Announcement is not clear.

When you record your announcement, make sure you speak in a normal tone of voice, towards the microphone on the handset.

Make sure there is no background noise (TV, music, etc.) while recording.

I subscribe to a nontraditional telephone service that uses my computer to establish connections, and my telephone doesn’t work.

Make sure your computer is powered on.

Make sure your Internet connection is working properly.

Make sure that the software is installed and running for your nontraditional telephone service.

Make sure to plug your USB telephone adapter into a dedicated USB port on your computer. Do not plug it into a multiple port USB hub (USB splitter) that is not powered.

In a few rare instances, the USB port on your computer may not have enough power. In these instances, try using a USB hub with its own external power supply.

If you are using a firewall, it may prevent access to your nontraditional telephone service. Contact your service provider for more information.
