How can I clear the memory of my GED Digital CID Speaker Phone Model #29897GE1?

Hello I want to change the configuration of the telephone but not as in addition to change the message of Englishman's welcome to Spanish or as with it the manual in Spanish. Thank you

Looking for a new answerling machine. The problem is evidently internal, in the electronics.

While the unit is in ready-to-answer mode, press and hold DELETE until the unit announces, "Messages erased."
• New messages can not be erased in this way. To erase new messages, play them then press DELETE during play back.

Here is a useful link that may help you, it is the instruction manual for your phone:

These phones use a "Shared" memory, the CID information and the Phone book information share the same memory chip. If you clean out the caller ID data you should be able to load more numbers in the phone book. Since you have an 8885 I am assuming you have TCX800 or TCX905 handset(s), to clear the CID memory, Follow these steps:

Deleting Information from the Caller ID List
1) When the phone is in standby mode, view the Caller ID
information to be deleted (see "Viewing the Caller ID
List" on page 50).
2) Press the DELETE soft key. De let e C all er ID appears.
3) Press volume up/down to choose Yes.
4) Press the OK soft key. You will hear a confirmation tone.

To delete all the CID information follow these steps:

Deleting all Caller ID names/numbers
1) When the phone is in standby mode, press cid.
Press the DELETE soft key. De let e A ll? appears.
2) Press volume up/down to choose Y es.
3) Press the OK soft key. You will hear a confirmation tone

Here is a link for the User Guide for your phone, there is a location under the phone to replace the battery... but in this document they have it all written out.

Just unplug the adaptor from the electrical outlet to reset it then plug it back in...
