Troubleshooting
New voicemail and   show on the handset and I don’t know why.
If New voicemail and   appear on the handset, your telephone has received a 
signal from your telephone service provider that you have a voicemail message 
waiting for you to retrieve from them. Contact your telephone service provider for 
more information on how to access your voicemail.
I cannot retrieve voicemail messages.
If you subscribe to voicemail service from your telephone service provider 
(charges may apply), contact your telephone service provider for more 
information on how to access your voicemail.
The answering system does not answer after the correct number 
of rings.
Make sure the answering system is on. When the answering system is on, the 
/ANS ON/OFF light on the telephone base should be lit and ANS ON should 
show on the handsets.
If toll saver is selected, the number of rings changes to two when there are new 
messages waiting (page 34).
If the memory is full or if the answering system is off, the answering system 
answers after 10 rings.
In some cases, the answering system is affected by the ringing system used by 
your telephone service provider.
If you subscribe to voicemail service, change the number of rings so that your 
answering system answers before your voicemail answers (page 34). To 
determine how many rings activate your voicemail, contact your telephone 
service provider.
If there is a fax machine connected to the same telephone line, try disconnecting 
the fax machine. If that solves the problem, consult your fax machine 
documentation for information on compatibility with answering systems.
I cannot hear any instruction from the handset when I try to record, 
play or delete my own announcement.
The handset does not have a speakerphone. When recording, playing or deleting 
your own announcement, the instructions are announced through the handset 
receiver. Make sure you place the handset receiver close to your ear.
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.
