Testing the Phone
Did you hear a dial tone?
Did the strobe start flashing immediately after the button was pushed?
Did the red LED become a solid light when you pushed the button?
Did the red LED flash and approximately 15-20 seconds later the called party
started talking to you? (Delay is due to the phone telling the other party your
location via the “Location Message”)
Can you hear the other party clearly? (If not, see “Adjust Speaker” below)
Can the other party hear you clearly? (If not, see “Adjust Microphone” below)
When the party you called hangs up, does the strobe stop?
If you have answered YES to all questions, you have successfully installed and tested
the phone. If you answer NO to any question, proceed to the Troubleshooting Section.
Push the silver emergency button on the front of the tower:

* Rath recommends the tower phone be tested on a regular basis to ensure proper operation.
