Problem

Suggestion

The answering system

does not respond to

remote commands.

Make sure your remote access code is correct (see page 29).
Make sure you are calling from a touch-tone telephone. When dialing a number, you should

hear tones. If you hear 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 dial pad keys firmly

when dialing.


My cordless handset

beeps five times and

i s n o t p e r f o r m i n g

normally.

Make sure the power cord is securely plugged into the telephone base. Plug the unit into a

different working electrical outlet not controlled by a wall switch.
Move the cordless handset closer to the telephone base. It may be out of range.
Reset the telephone base by unplugging the unit’s electrical power. Wait for 15 seconds and

plug it back in again. Allow up to one minute for the cordless handset and the telephone base

to synchronize.
Other electrictronic products can cause interference to your cordless telephone. Try installing

your telephone as far away from these electronic devices as possible: wireless routers, radios,

radio towers, pager towers, cellular telephones, intercoms, room monitors, televisions, personal

computers, kitchen appliances and other cordless telephones.
