IN CASE OF DIFFICULTY
If the phone does not ring when you receive a call:
Make sure the handset ringer is on.
Make sure the telephone line cord is connected firmly to the base and the
telephone jack.
Make sure the AC adapter is plugged firmly into an outlet not controlled by
a wall switch.
You might be too far from the base; move closer.
You might have too many extension phones on your telephone line to
allow all of them to ring. Try unplugging some of them.

If you hear other calls while using your phone:
Press c to change to another channel.
Disconnect the base from the modular jack and plug in a corded telephone.
If you still hear other calls, the problem is probably in your wiring or
local service. Call your local telephone service company.
If messages are incomplete:
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 6 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.
If you have difficulty hearing messages:
Check the volume setting on the base.
If the system does not answer after the correct number of rings:
Make sure the ON/OFF light is on. If it is not, press O on the base.
If Toll Saver is on, the number of rings changes to two when you have
new messages waiting.
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 answers after 10 rings.
If CL appears in the Message Window:
You need to reset the clock.
