If you lose a call
while using the
handset
Incomplete
messages
•
You were probably out of range. Move closer to the base. Before
placing another call, set the handset in the base for at least 15
seconds.
•
If a caller leaves a very long message, part of it may be lost when the
system disconnects the call after 4 minutes.
•
If the caller pauses for more than 7 seconds, the system stops
recording and disconnects the call.
•
If the system’s memory becomes full during a message, the system
stops recording and disconnects the call.
Difficulty hear-
ing messages
•
Press volume button to increase speaker volume.
System does
not answer
after correct
number of rings
•
Make sure that the answering system is on.
•
If Toll Saver is activated, the number of rings changes to two when
you have new messages waiting (see page 28).
•
In some cases, the system may be affected by the ringing system
used by the local telephone company.
•
If the memory is full or the system is off, the system will answer after
10 rings.
“CL” appears in
message window
•
You need to reset the answering system clock (see page 25).
Announcement
message is not
clear
•
When you record your announcement, make sure you speak in a
normal tone of voice, about 9 inches from the base.
•
Make sure there is no “background” noise (TV, music, etc.) while you
are recording.
System does
not respond
to remote
commands
•
Make sure to enter your Remote Access Code correctly (see page 33).
•
Make sure you are calling from a touch-tone phone. When you dial a
number, you should hear tones. If you hear clicks, the phone is not a
touch-tone telephone and cannot activate the answering system.
•
The answering system may not detect the Remote Access Code
while your announcement is playing. Try waiting until the announce-
ment is over before entering the code.
•
There may be noise or interference on the phone line you are using.
Press dial-pad buttons firmly.
