TROUBLESHOOTING

We do not expect you to have any problems with your answering system, but if you
do, be sure you installed the tape correctly. If you still have a problem, this chart
might help. If it does not, take the answering system to your local RadioShack store
for assistance.

tone, beeping, or the

The caller hung up without 
leaving a message or with-
out using the maximum

If this happens often, discuss
