User's Manual
Can't receive or make phone calls.
• Check if the phone is set to the correct type of service, either Tone or Pulse.
The answering machine 2-digit displays shows “OP.”
• This stands for “Outgoing (message) Playback.” This is just a visual indica-
tion that the outgoing message is currently being played.
“Message Waiting” appears on the LCD.
• Follow the instructions for “Deleting Message Waiting Indication” on page 30.
No dial tone/phone will not dial out.
• Check that the AC power adapter is plugged into a working AC power outlet.
• Check all telephone cord connections or try another wall jack.
• Do a basic reset of the phone: Disconnect the phone from the wall and
remove the battery. Leave for 30 minutes and then re-install as instructed by
the manual.
Can’t hear the ring signal.
• Check the handest ringer volume control; at the lowest level the ring may not
be heard.
• Check the base ring on/off switch, located on the bottom of the phone, to
make sure it is set to the proper position.
While on a call, you hear another call on the line or experience radio
frequency interference.
• Switch channels to a clear channel.
• Check the wiring for bad connections.
• Do not use this phone within 20 feet of a working microwave. The microwave
produces frequencies in this range which may cause interference. This
interference is normal for all 2.4GHz phones and should not be considered a
product defect.
The caller’s name and/or phone number does not appear on the display.
• Make sure you have subscribed to Caller ID service from your local
telephone company and that service has been activated.
• Caller ID service may not work when the phone is connected to a Private
Branch Exchange (PBX).
• The caller has requested that their phone number be suppressed from Caller
ID service, or caller ID service is not available in their area.
"Private" or
"Unavailable" will appear on the display.
• You answered the call before Caller ID data was displayed, which usually
occurs after the first ring.
Cannot remotely access the answering system.
• Verify that the 3-digit remote access code has not been reset to the default
code (press [Code] to announce the current remote access code).
• Be sure to wait until after the outgoing message has begun playing before
entering the remote access code.
