Walker W1100 manual Ringer Volume Problem Unable To Hear Phone Ringer

TROUBLE-SHOOTING GUIDE

➤Compatibility

•Ê Clarity Phones Are Compatible With Digital PBX Systems

—If a standard, single line phone works, your clarity phone should also work.

•Ê Clarity Phones Are Not Compatible With Key Systems Or AT&T PBX Systems

—These units have a large electronic box controlling many phones as one unit. These types of units may be found in office buildings and some retirement homes, nursing homes and condos.

➤Ringer Volume Problem

•Ê Unable To Hear Phone Ringer

—Make sure the ringer volume is not set to OFF.

—Slide the volume adjustment switch to the large dot and the pitch adjustment switch to the small dot. This will cause the ringer to sound at its loudest and lowest frequency. Typically, low frequencies are easier for people with hearing loss to detect.

—Consider purchasing a variable pitch auxiliary ringer such as the Walker WR-

100.These devices are exceptionally loud and can be plugged into any phone outlet in your home.

➤Interference Problems

•Ê User Hears Radio Or CB Transmissions Over The Phone

—Contact your local phone company to have your telephone line checked. A Radio Frequency Interference (RFI) filter may be put on the line to minimize this problem.

If you have any telephone service prob- lems, first make sure you have followed all of the installation procedures outlined in this user’s guide. Then try to determine if the source of the problem is the Walker Clarity itself or your phone service. To do this, disconnect the Walker Clarity and plug in your standard telephone. If the trouble persists with the standard tele- phone, inform your telephone company. If the trouble is related to only the Walker Clarity, review the installation procedures and the troubleshooting guide before referring to the Limited Warranty stated later in this user guide.
