10.3.3 Cordless handset

The ink film runs out
quickly.

Even if there are only a few sentences, every page that comes out
of the machine is considered a full page.

Turn OFF the following features:
–

confirmation report: feature #04 on page 69.

–

journal report: feature #22 on page 70.

–

Caller ID list: feature #26 on page 71.

The unit beeps.

Recording paper/ink film has run out. Press

{

STOP

}

to stop the

beeps and install paper/ink film.

Whenever I try to retrieve
my voice mail messages, I
am interrupted by the fax
tone.

You are probably entering

{*}{#}{

}

. This is the default setting

for the fax activation code. If you use a voice mail service, turn the
fax activation feature OFF or reprogram the activation code
(feature #41 on page 72).

The speakerphone is not
working.

Use the speakerphone in a quiet room.

If you have difficulty hearing the other party, adjust the volume.

I cannot page the handset
or base unit.

The handset is too far from the base unit.

The unit does not display
the caller’s name and/or
telephone number.

You need to subscribe to a Caller ID service.

Other telephone equipment may be interfering with your phone.
Disconnect it and try again.

Other electrical appliances connected to the same outlet may be
interfering with the Caller ID information.

Telephone line noise may be affecting the Caller ID information.

The caller requested not to send his/her information (page 39).

If a call is being transferred to you, the caller information will not be
displayed.

The Caller ID list/incoming
phone numbers are not
edited automatically.

The Caller ID number auto edit feature is turned OFF. Turn it ON
and try again (page 42).

The display exits the
Caller ID List while
viewing caller
information.

Do not pause for over 1 minute on the handset or 3 minutes on the
base unit while searching.
