Troubleshooting

The outgoing announcement is not clear.

•When recording the announcement, make sure you speak in a normal tone of voice towards the microphone of the handset.

•Make sure there is no background noise when recording.

The answering system does not record messages.

•Make sure the answering system is on.

•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 (page 49). 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.

The messages on the answering system are very difficult to hear.

•Press /VOLUME on handset or VOL+ on the telephone base to increase the listening volume.

The messages on the answering system are incomplete.

•If a caller leaves a very long message, part of it may be lost when the answering system disconnects the call after the preset recording time.

•If the memory on the answering system becomes full during a message, the answering system stops recording and disconnects the call.

•If the caller’s voice is very soft, the answering system may stop recording and disconnect the call.

The answering system does not respond to remote commands.

•Make sure your remote access code is correct (page 47).

•Make sure you are calling from a touch-tone telephone. When dialing a number, there should be tones. If there are clicks, then it is not a touch-tone telephone and cannot activate the answering system.

•The answering system may not detect the remote access code when your announcement is playing. Wait until the announcement is over before entering the code.

•There may be interference on the telephone line you are using. Press the dialing keys firmly when dialing.

Some models in the series come with the capability to connect to separate handsets, allowing for easy expansion of home or office communication systems. This scalability means that users can add additional handsets without the need for extra phone lines, facilitating seamless communication throughout larger spaces.

Another key feature is the caller ID and call waiting functionality, which helps users to screen calls effectively. Users can easily see who is calling before answering, thus enhancing their control over incoming communications.

The VTech CS6729 series is also energy efficient, designed with eco-friendly features that help reduce power consumption, leading to lower energy bills while being environmentally conscious.

In conclusion, the VTech CS6729 series of cordless phones—comprising models CS6729-3, CS6729-21, CS6729-4D, CS6729-4, and CS6729-5—offers a range of user-friendly features powered by advanced technologies.
