heads may be soiled and should be
cleaned.

Unplug the system from the
electrical outlet.
• Remove the cassette tape.

cleaning kit, and follow the
manufacturer's instructions
— OR —
Rub the front face of the record-
ing heads lightly with a soft,
clean cotton swab moistened
slightly with isopropyl

If the recording tape sticks or malfunctions
•
Use only high-quality MC-30 or

extended period, it may be worn and
should be replaced.
If the system does not answer after the
correct number of rings
•
If the Ring Select switch is set to TS,
the system answers after 4 rings when
you have no new messages, and after
2 rings when you have new messages.
• The system might be off, or the tape
might be full. In either of these cases,
the system answers after 10 rings.
• The tape might be missing, broken, or
incorrectly installed.
If the system does not respond to remote
commands
•
Make sure you are calling from a
touch tone telephone. If you hear
clicks when you dial, the phone is not
a touch tone phone.
• There might be noise or interference
on the phone line you are using. Press
dial buttons firmly.
• Make sure you are entering your
Remote Access Code correctly.
• A power failure might have caused the
Remote Access Code to revert to its
original setting.
