About caller ID

The caller ID with call waiting feature in this telephone lets you see the name and telephone number of the caller before answering the call, even when you’re on a call. These features require services provided by your local telephone company.

•

•

•

Contact your telephone company if: you have both caller ID and call waiting, but as separate services (you may need combined service); you have only caller ID service, or only call waiting service; or you do not subscribe to any caller ID or call waiting services, but wish to order them.

You can use this telephone with regular caller ID service, and you can use its other features without subscribing to either caller ID or combined caller ID with call waiting service. There may be fees for these services, and these services may not be available in all areas.

The caller ID features will work only if both you and the caller are in areas offering caller ID service, and if both telephone companies use compatible equipment.


21

•

•

Due to regional service differences, the caller ID information may not be available for every incoming call. In addition, the callers may intentionally block their names and/or telephone numbers.

For call log entries with numbers between

16 and 23 digits, in order to view the entire number you must save the entry to the directory. For information on saving call log entries to the directory, see page 25.

22


•

•

•

•

•

•

Call log

If you subscribe to caller ID service, information about each caller will be displayed after the first or second ring.

The call log can store up to 50 entries. Each entry may have up to 24 digits for the phone number and 15 characters for the name. If the phone number has more than 24 digits, it will not be saved or displayed in the call log. If the phone number has more than 15 but fewer than 24 digits, only the last 15 digits will be shown. If the name is longer than 15 characters, only the first 15 characters will be shown and saved in the call log.

You can review, redial, and copy an entry into the directory.

Entries are displayed in reverse chronological order, i.e. from the most recent entry to the earliest entry.

Answering system

Answering system and voicemail

Your telephone has both a digital answering system and voicemail indication.

Voicemail is offered by your telephone service provider (fees may apply). Your telephone’s answering system and voicemail indication are independent features, and each alerts you to new messages differently. For more information on the voicemail indicators, see page 9. To listen to your voicemail, you typically dial an access number provided by your telephone company, followed by a security code or PIN. To listen to messages recorded on your digital answering system, press /PLAY/STOP button on the telephone base.

If you subscribe to caller ID/call waiting service through your telephone service provider, you can use your telephone answering system and voicemail together.

Set your answering system to answer calls at least two rings earlier than your voicemail is set to answer. For example, set your voicemail to answer calls after six rings and set your answering system to answer after four rings. Some voicemail providers may program the delay before answering calls in seconds instead of rings; in this case allow six seconds per ring when determining the appropriate setting. By doing this, if you are on a call, or if the answering system is busy recording a message and you receive another call, the second caller can leave a voicemail message.

Message capacity

The answering system can record and store up to 99 messages. A message can be up to four minutes in length. The total storage capacity for the announcement, messages and memos is approximately 14 minutes. Messages will remain available for replay until they are deleted.

Remove and re-insert the battery. If that still does not work, it may be necessary to purchase a new battery.

Disconnect the telephone base from the telephone wall jack and plug in a working telephone.

If the other telephone does not work, the problem is probably in the wiring or the local service.

Call the local telephone company.

Place the handset in the telephone base for recharging.

Remove and re-install the battery and use it normally until fully discharged, then recharge the handset on the telephone base for up to 16 hours.

If the above measures do not correct the problem, the battery may need to be replaced.

•

Suggestion

Make sure the handset ringer volume is not set to zero (page 8) and the telephone base ringer is not set to off (page 32).

Make sure the telephone line cord and power adapter are plugged in properly (page 2).

The handset may be too far from the telephone base. Move it closer to the telephone base.

There may be too many extension phones on the telephone line to allow all of them to ring simultaneously. Try unplugging some of them.

If the other telephones in your home are having the same problem, the problem is in the wiring or local service. Contact the local telephone company (charges may apply).

Other electronic products can cause interference to your cordless telephone. Try installing your telephone as far away as possible from the following electronic devices: wireless routers, radios, radio towers, pager towers, cellular telephones, digital telephones, intercoms, room monitors, televisions, VCRs, personal computers, kitchen appliances, and other cordless telephones.

Test a working telephone at the telephone wall jack. If another telephone has the same problem, the problem is in the telephone wall jack. Contact your local telephone company (charges may apply).

The telephone line cord might be malfunctioning. Try installing a new telephone line cord.

Re-install the battery and place the handset in the telephone base.

Wait for the handset to synchronize with the telephone base. Allow up to one minute for this to take place.

Troubleshooting

Problem

I cannot dial out.

My handset beeps and is not performing normally.

First, try all the above suggestions.

Make sure there is a dial tone before dialing. It is normal if the handset takes a second or two to synchronize with the telephone before producing a dial tone. Wait an extra second before dialing.

If the other telephones in your home are having the same problem, the problem is in the wiring or local service. Contact your local telephone company (charges may apply).

Eliminate any background noise. Noise from a television, radio, or other appliances may cause the telephone not to dial out properly. If you cannot eliminate the background noise, first try muting the cordless handset before dialing, or dialing from another room in your home with less background noise.

Make sure the power cord is securely plugged into the telephone base. Plug the telephone base into a different working electrical outlet not controlled by a wall switch.

Move the handset closer to the telephone base. It may be out of range.

Reset the telephone base by unplugging the electrical power to the base. 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 electronic 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.

Do you have DSL service? If yes, you need to have a DSL filter installed at every telephone wall jack that has a telephone connected to it (page 2). Contact your DSL service provider for filter information.

Appliances or other cordless telephones plugged into the same circuit as the telephone base can cause interference. Try moving the appliance or telephone base to another outlet.

Other electronic products can cause interference to your cordless telephone. Try installing your telephone as far away as possible from the following electronic devices: wireless routers, radios, radio towers, pager towers, cellular telephones, digital telephones, intercoms, room monitors, televisions, VCRs, personal computers, kitchen appliances, and other cordless telephones.

If your telephone is plugged in with a modem or a surge protector, plug the telephone (or modem/surge protector) into a different location. If this doesn’t solve the problem, re-locate your telephone or modem farther apart from each other, or use a different surge protector.

The location of your telephone base can impact the performance of your cordless phone. For better reception, install the telephone base in a centralized location within your home or office, away from walls or other obstructions. In many environments, elevating the telephone base will improve overall performance.

Disconnect the telephone base from the telephone wall jack and plug in a corded telephone.

If calls are still not clear, the problem is probably in the wiring or local service. Contact your local service company (charges may apply).

If the other telephones in your home are having the same problem, the problem is in the wiring or local service. Contact the local telephone company (charges may apply).

Troubleshooting

Problem

I hear other calls when using the telephone.

Suggestion

• Disconnect the telephone base from the telephone wall jack. Plug in a different telephone. If you still hear other calls, the problem is probably in the wiring or local service. Call your local telephone company.

I hear noise on the cordless handset, and none of the keys or buttons works.

• Make sure the telephone line cord is plugged in securely.

My caller ID features are not working properly.

•

•

•

•

•

Caller ID is a subscription service. You must subscribe to this service from your local telephone company for this feature to work on your telephone.

The caller may not be calling from an area which supports caller ID.

Both you and the caller’s telephone companies must use equipment which are compatible with the caller ID service.

The caller ID information will be displayed after the first or second ring. Caller ID data may not be displayed on your phone if you answer a call at or before the second ring. This would also apply to an answering device that answers the call at or before the second ring.

If you subscribe to DSL service, install a DSL filter to the telephone line between the telephone base and the telephone line jack. Contact your DSL service provider for filter information.

52


Troubleshooting

Problem

The system does not receive caller ID or the system does not display caller ID during call waiting.

Suggestion

•

•

•

•

•

Make sure you subscribe to caller ID with call waiting features provided by the local telephone company.

The caller may not be calling from an area which supports caller ID.

Both you and the caller’s telephone companies must use equipment which are compatible with caller ID service.

Caller ID data may not be displayed on your phone if you answer a call at or before the second ring.

This would also apply to an answering device that answers the call at or before the second ring.

If you subscribe to DSL service, install a DSL filter to the telephone line between the telephone base and the telephone line jack. Contact your DSL service provider for filter information.

Caller ID entries do not match the numbers I need to dial.

•

•

Although the call log entries you receive have 10 digits, (the area code plus the seven-digit number), in some areas, you may need to dial only the seven digits, or a 1 plus the seven digits, or a 1 plus the area code plus the seven digits. You can change the number of digits that you dial from the call log.

While reviewing the call log, press

# repeatedly to display these dialing options for local and long distance numbers before dialing or saving the telephone number.

The answering system does not answer after the number of rings which I programmed it.

•

•

•

•

Make sure the answering system is on. When the answering system is on, the red light on the

ANS ON/OFF key should be lit.

If toll saver is activated, the number of rings changes to two when there are new messages recorded (page 31).

If the memory is full or if the answering system is off, the system will answer after ten rings.

In some cases, the answering system will be affected by the ringing system used by the local telephone company.


53

Troubleshooting

Problem Suggestion

The answering system does not record messages.

•

•

The messages on the answering system are incomplete.

•

•

•

Make sure the answering system is on.

If the answering machine memory is full, it will not record new messages until some old messages are deleted.

If a caller leaves a very long message, part of it may be lost when the system disconnects the call after four minutes.

If the memory on the system becomes full during a message, the system stops recording and disconnects the call.

If the caller’s voice is very soft, the system may stop recording and disconnect the call.

The outgoing announcement is not clear.

•

•

When recording the announcement, make sure you speak in a normal tone of voice about nine inches from the telephone base.

Make sure there is no background noise (television, music, traffic, etc.) when recording.

The messages on the system are very difficult to hear.

The answering system does not respond to remote commands.

• Press VOL on the telephone base to increase the speaker volume.

•

•

•

• Make sure your remote access code is correct (page 33).

Make sure you are calling from a touch-tone telephone. When dialing a number, there should be tones. If there are 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.

If there is a call while the handset is out of range, it might not ring, or if it does ring, the call might not connect well when you press

/FLASH.

Move closer to the telephone base, then press /FLASH to answer the call.

If the handset moves out of range during a telephone conversation, there might be interference.

To improve reception, move closer to the telephone base.

Maintenance

Taking care of your telephone

Your cordless telephone contains sophisticated electronic parts, so it must be treated with care.

Avoid rough treatment

Place the handset down gently. Save the original packing materials to protect your telephone if you ever need to ship it.

Avoid water

Your telephone can be damaged if it gets wet. Do not use the handset outdoors in the rain, or handle it with wet hands. Do not install the telephone base near a sink, bathtub or shower.

Electrical storms

Electrical storms can sometimes cause power surges harmful to electronic equipment. For your own safety, take caution when using electrical appliances during storms.

Cleaning your telephone

Your telephone has a durable plastic casing that should retain its luster for many years. Clean it only with a soft cloth slightly dampened with water or a mild soap. Do not use excess water or cleaning solvents of any kind.

Remember that electrical appliances can cause serious injury if used when you are wet or standing in the water. If the telephone base should fall into the water, DO NOT RETRIEVE IT UNTIL YOU UNPLUG THE POWER CORD AND TELEPHONE LINE CORDS FROM THE WALL.

Then pull the unit out by the unplugged cords.

About cordless telephones

the telephone base and the cordless handset by radio waves, so there is a possibility that the cordless telephone conversations could be intercepted by radio receiving equipment within range of the cordless handset. For this reason, you should not think of cordless telephone conversations as being as private as those on corded telephones.

Electrical power: The telephone base of this cordless telephone must be connected to a working electrical outlet. The electrical outlet should not be controlled by a wall switch. Calls cannot be made from the cordless handset if the telephone base is unplugged or switched off, or if the electrical power is interrupted. minimize or prevent such interference, do not place the telephone base of the cordless telephone near or on top of a TV or VCR. If interference is experienced, moving the cordless telephone farther away from the TV or VCR will often reduce or eliminate the interference.

Rechargeable batteries: This product contains either Nickel-cadmium or Nickel-metal hydride rechargeable batteries. Exercise care in handling batteries in order not to create a short circuit with conducting material such as rings, bracelets, and keys. The battery or conductor may overheat and cause harm.
