Troubleshooting
10.3 When a function does
not work, check here
10.3.1 Initial settings
I cannot hear a dial tone.
L
The telephone line cord is connected to the
[EXT]
jack on the unit. Connect to the
[LINE]
jack (page 5) (KX-FT901/KX-FT903 only).
L
If you used a splitter to connect the unit,
remove the splitter and connect the unit to the
wall jack directly. If the unit operates properly,
check the splitter.
L
Disconnect the unit from the telephone line
and connect the line to a known working
telephone. If the working telephone operates
properly, contact our service personnel to
have the unit repaired. If the working
telephone does not operate properly, contact
your telephone company.
L
The power cord or telephone line cord is not
connected. Check the connections.
L
If you connected the fax machine through a
computer modem, connect the fax machine
directly to a telephone line jack.
I cannot make calls.
L
The dialling mode setting may be wrong.
Change the setting (feature #13, page 47).
The unit does not ring.
L
The ringer volume is turned OFF. Adjust it
(page 14).
L
The TAD ring setting of feature #06 is set to
“
RINGER OFF
”. Change to another ring
setting (page 47) (KX-FT907 only).
10.3.2 General
The other party complains they only hear a
fax tone and cannot talk.
L
FAX ONLY mode is set. Tell the other party
the number is only used for faxes.
L
Change the receiving mode:
–
KX-FT901/KX-FT903: TEL mode (page
34) or TEL/FAX mode (page 36).
–
KX-FT907: TAD/FAX mode (page 35),
TEL mode (page 34) or TEL/FAX mode
(page 36).

If you use a Distinctive Ring service, make
sure you have set the same ring pattern
assigned by the telephone company (page
38).
The
{
REDIAL
}
/
{
PAUSE
}
button does not
function properly.
L
If this button is pressed during dialling, a
pause will be inserted. If pressed
immediately after a dial tone is obtained, the
last number dialled will be redialled.
The receiving mode does not function
properly.
L
A Distinctive Ring of feature #31 is activated
(page 38).
During programming, I cannot enter the code
or ID number.

All or part of the numbers are the same as
another code or ID. Change the number:

remote operation ID: feature #11 on page
47 (KX-FT907 only).
–
fax activation code: feature #41 on page
49.
–
auto disconnection code: feature #49 on
page 49.
The speakerphone is not working (KX-FT907
only).

Use the speakerphone in a quiet room.

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

run out of recording paper. Try again.

The other party’s machine is not a fax
machine. Check with the other party.

The other party’s fax machine failed to
answer the fax automatically. Send the fax
manually (page 27).
I cannot send a fax overseas.
L
Use the overseas transmission mode of
feature #23 (page 48).
L
Add two pauses at the end of the telephone
number or dial manually.
The other party complains that letters on
their received document are distorted or not
clear.
L
If your line has special telephone services
such as call waiting, the service may have
been activated during fax transmission.
