For Customer Service, visit our web site at www.telephones.att.com, or call 1 800 222–3111. Telephone does not work at all If you lose a call after changing channels • You were probably almost out of range. Move closer to the base before changing channels. Before placing another call,set the handset in the base for at least 15 seconds. Incomplete messages • If a caller leaves a very long message, part of it may be lost when the system disconnects the call after 4 minutes. • Make sure batteries are installed and charged correctly (see page 7). • Make sure the AC adapter is plugged into an outlet not controlled by a wall switch. • Make sure the telephone line cord is plugged firmly into the base unit and the modular jack. • If the caller pauses for more than 7 seconds, the system stops recording and disconnects the call. • Make sure the base antenna is fully upright. • • If these suggestions do not work, unplug the base, remove and reinsert the batteries, then place the handset in the base to re-initialize. If the system’s memory becomes full during a message,the system stops recording and disconnects the call. • Press • Make sure that the answering system is on. • If Toll Saver is activated, the number of rings changes to two when you have new messages waiting (see page 39). • In some cases, the system may be affected by the ringing system used by the local telephone company. • If the memory is full or the system is off, the system will answer after 10 rings. “CL” appears in message window • You need to reset the answering system clock (see page 36). System does not respond to remote commands • Make sure to enter your Remote Access Code correctly (see page 43). • Make sure you are calling from a touch-tone phone. When you dial a number, you should hear tones. If you hear clicks, the phone is not a touch-tone telephone and cannot activate the answering system. • The answering system may not detect the Remote Access Code while your announcement is playing. Try waiting until the announcement is over before entering the code. • There may be noise or interference on the phone line you are using. Press dial-pad buttons firmly. • When you record your announcement, make sure you speak in a normal tone of voice, about 9 inches from the base. • Make sure there is no “background” noise (TV, music, etc.) while you are recording. Difficulty hearing messages Phone does not ring If you hear noise or interference during a call • Make sure the ringer is on (see page 15). • Make sure the telephone line cord and AC adapter are plugged in properly (see page 6). • Make sure the base antenna is fully upright. • Move the handset closer to the base. • You might have too many extension phones on your telephone line to allow all of them to ring. Try unplugging some of them. • Make sure the base antenna is fully upright. • You may be out of range. Move closer to the base. • Appliances plugged into the same circuit as the base can cause interference. Try moving the appliance or base to another outlet. • The layout of your home or office might be limiting the operating range. Try moving the base to another location, preferably on an upper floor. • If the buttons don’t work,try placing the handset in the base for at least 15 seconds. • Disconnect the base from the modular jack and plug in a corded telephone. If calls are still not clear, the problem is probably in your wiring or local service. Call your local telephone service company.
