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 51). To
determine how many rings activate your voicemail, please contact your telephone

speaker 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

answering system stops recording and disconnects the call.

disconnect the call.
The answering system does not respond to remote commands.
Make sure your remote access code is correct (page 49).
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.
