Philips Zenia Voice Cordless Phone - Answered Questions & Fixed issues

Hi,The voice time/day stamp on the answer system needs to be set, this is true even if you have Caller ID. The day of the week will still need to be set manually.

Thanks and take care

it probably has been damaged in someway for the cost of repair you could prob get a new one,but also check that cables are not damaged,try a new cable first before any other damage is presumed

Il faut utiliser le code RC qui est marque sur l'etiquette au dos du repondeur !

WHICH MODEL?

Replace the batteries.

Hi
Even though you phone supports call waiting, I think you will find you will need to have the service enabled on your line by your service provider. If you have already done this have you tried a different phone with 'R' button (used to access extra services). Another thing to try if service is on your line is to check on base of phone to see what setting the TBR (timed break recall) switch is set to and try switching to opposite to see if it makes difference? This controls how the phone reacts to commands using the R button by way of sending tones down your line.(I know if your in UK it should be set to TBR). Hope that helps?

Hi
here is a downloadable version of the instruction manual...

Regarding using the base on its own, I cannot see why not if you have all the working buttons to control functions you need on it.
If you are going to use other phones with this please take into account REN values on your line. Most lines will support upto and including 4 REN value. Nearly all phones will have a REN value of 1. So ideally only have a maximum of 4 phones (may get away with 5 if you are near an exchange?)
Hope that helps?

Try to type 0000 (four zeroes!)

Could be line cord connection at base or other wiring issue. Do you have a different phone(s) at same location that work? If you have a known good phone, the simpler the better, unplug all other tele devices at your location and verify the know good phone works?

You need to dry it out completely. A few centrifugal swings around your shoulder might remove much of the water. Then try one of these drying methods: Place it on a register or AC vent for a day or so might be the best way to get it dry. Afterwards, (if trying to operate it didn't short out a component,) it might work again.

With what kind of batteries you've renewed? Are they rechargeable?

Sorry you will need to pay for that info.

Generally the connectors are not interchangable, BUT make sure that the batteries are the same model. Also, they might be CHEAP knock offs that are faulty.

Reinitializing the base and then relinking the base to each handset may be necessary. You may have done these procedures when you first setup the phones. If the owners manual does not cover this procedure, you can try Philips technical support.

is there a phone call you missed and its letting you know, try that.

Call your phone company and ensure service to your landline is turned on. Page 36 of CD235 manual
