Troubleshooting Guide - on an intercom call, or - programming the phone, or - when a message is being recorded at that extension. It is preferable to set one or more additional phones to act as Auto Attendant for occasions when the primary Auto Attendant is turned off or in use.

Troubleshooting Guide Incoming voice too low or none at all. • Check volume setting. Memory dialing doesn’t work • Did you program the memory location keys correctly? • Did you follow proper dialing sequence? Battery icon is blank or shows only one bar • The 4 “AAA” batteries need replacing or are improperly installed or not installed at all. Intercom does not function correctly • Make sure line 1 is connected properly and common to all phones on the system.
