Operations
When a function does not work, check here!
General
I cannot make and receive calls.
●The power cord or telephone line cord is not connected. Check the connections (p. 18).
●If you used a splitter to connect the unit, remove the splitter and connect the unit to the wall jack directly. If the unit operates properly, check the splitter.
I cannot make calls.
●The dialling mode setting is wrong. Change the setting of feature #13 (p. 59). (Australian users only)
The unit does not work.
●Disconnect the unit from the telephone line and connect the line to a known working telephone. If the working telephone operates properly, contact our service personnel to have the unit repaired. If the working telephone does not operate properly, contact your telephone company.
The unit does not ring.
●The ringer volume is set to off. Adjust it (p. 23).
The other party complains they only hear a fax tone and cannot talk.
