Adjusting the Ringer, Earpiece and Speaker Volume

Adjusting the Ringer Volume

You can choose from four ringer volume settings (off, low, medium, and high)

separately on each handset or the base.

With the phone in standby, press or on the handset or VOLUME or

VOLUME on the base. The handset or base sounds the ringer at that level.

Use on the handset or VOLUME on the base to make the ringer volume

louder. Use on the handset or VOLUME on the base to make it softer or

turn it completely off.

When you hear the ringer volume level you want to use, stop pressing keys.

The handset or base will use the new ringer volume starting with the next incoming call.

Note: If you set the ringer volume to Off, the handset or base won't ring. Other handsets or base will ring according
to their individual settings.

Standby mode is when the phone is not on a call, you're not dialing one, and you're not doing anything with the menus. It's standing by, waiting for you to call or for someone to call you.

Since you neglected to specify the model of your Uniden DECT 6.0 phone I can only suggest you select it from the list beginning here to download a copy of the manual.

Welcome to FixYa!

The base ringer is dependent to your handset ringer. If you lower the volume or turn off the handset ringer, the base ringer will follow.

Thank you for using FixYa.

Have a great day.

UNIDEN MODEL EZX290 HANDSET>>>VISUAL RINGET AT TOP (YELLOW LED) FLASHES. HOW DO I TURN THT OFF?

There should be a ringer tone and volume control on the second handset. Sometimes there is a ringer on/off switch on the side of the handset.

If that doesn't work, then there is a possibility that the speaker is broken.

Just press the down arrow on the center button
