TROUBLESHOOTING

If you experience problems with your TAD, check the possible causes in this section. If you still have problems, con- tact your local Radio Shack store for as- sistance.

The incoming message is incom- plete.

•Be sure the memory is not full.

•The caller’s message was longer than 60 seconds.

•The caller was silent for over 8 sec- onds.

The incoming message is unclear.

• Be sure VOLUME is turned up.

The TAD does not answer after two or four rings.

•Be sure the TAD is set to answer calls.

Lo flashes on the display

•The backup battery is weak. Replace the battery (see “Installing the Backup Battery”).

You cannot record an incoming mes- sage.

•Be sure the TAD is set to answer calls.

•Make sure the memory is not full.

The TAD does not respond to the re- mote operation security code.

•Make sure the phone you used to dial the TAD is a touch-tone phone. (If it is not, you can use a pocket tone dialer to enter the code and commands.)

•Make sure the remote operation security code you entered is cor- rect.

There is line interference, or your touch-tone signals are not long and clear enough for the TAD to recog- nize.

•Re-enter your security code and press each button for 2 seconds.

No messages appear on the display.

•This could be caused by a power failure. Reset the TAD by removing the AC adapter and the battery from the TAD, then reinstalling them.
