tone. Wait an extra second before dialing.
If other telephones in your home are having the same problem, the problem is in
the wiring or telephone service. Contact your telephone service provider (charges
may apply).
Eliminate any background noise. Mute the cordless handset before dialing, or dial
from another room in your home with less background noise.
If you have changed your telephone service to digital service from a cable
company or a VoIP service provider, the telephone line may need to be rewired
to allow all existing telephone jacks to work. Contact your service provider for
more information.
The answering system does not answer after correct number of rings.
Make sure the answering system is on. When the answering system is on,
the handset shows ANS ON and the /ANS ON/OFF light on the telephone base
is on.
If toll saver is selected, the number of rings changes to two when there are
new messages.
If the memory is full or the answering system is off, the answering system
answers after 10 rings. In some cases, the answering system is affected by the
ringing system used by the telephone service provider.
If you subscribe to voicemail service, change the number of rings so that your
answering system answers before your voicemail answers. To get help with your
voicemail settings, contact your telephone service provider.
