12.3.7 Answering machine
12.3.8 If a power failure occurs
L The unit will not function.
L The unit is not designed for making emergency telephone calls when the power fails. Alternative
arrangements should be made for access to emergency services.
L Fax transmission and reception will be interrupted.
L If delayed transmission (feature #25 on page 67) is programmed and power failure prevents the
document from being sent at the set time, the document will be sent after power is restored.
L If any fax documents are stored in the memory, they will be lost. When power is restored, a power
down report will be printed stating which documents in memory have been erased.
The printing quality is
poor.
Please do not reuse the ink film!
Please use genuine Panasonic replacement film. Refer to page 11 for
further details.

Problem Cause & Solution

messages are not
recorded.

MINUTE” or “NO LIMIT” (page 61, or feature #10 on page 66).

58, 60).
I cannot operate the
answering machine with
the cordless handset.
L Another user is using the answering machine, accessing the Caller
ID list or on an outside call. Wait for the other user to finish.
L Another cordless handset user is changing program using the
base unit PIN (page 78). Wait for the other user to finish.

L The cordless handset is too far from the base unit. Move closer.
I cannot retrieve recorded
messages from a remote
location.

operation ID beforehand (page 61, or feature #11 on page 66).
L Press the remote operation ID correctly and firmly (page 63).

Only”. Select “1 MINUTE”/“1 Minute” or “NO LIMIT”/“No
Limit” (page 61, or feature #10 on page 66).

greeting message or
listening to messages, the
unit rings and recording
stops.
