A:AnswerHello! The answering machine does not require a password. You will only need to press PLAY on the handset or the base. As for the voicemail, it depends on the settings you have on. You can store the access code in the phone and press ACCESS if the notification "New message via voicemail" is displayed. -M
A:AnswerHi, Elaine! While we cannot ensure compatibility of this phone with business phone line services as it is primarily intended for household use, it does support Bluetooth functionality. You can connect it to your mobile phone using the Link2Cell feature or pair it with a Bluetooth headset for hands-free communication. -M
A:AnswerHello! The phone system has the Handset noise reduction feature. Also, the range of the handsets is approximately 33 feet from the base unit. The range will also be influenced by the environment in which the phone system is placed, and if there are any electronics around that would weaken the signal (such as microwave ovens, Wi-Fi routers, radios). -C
A:AnswerHello! You can change the ring count for the answering machine by pressing MENU # 211 on a handset > go to the desired setting > press SAVE. If the situation persists, it's probably because the voicemail is picking up, not the answering machine. To adjust the ring count of your voicemail, please contact your phone company. -M

A:AnswerHello! Our Panasonic telephones are not related to the 5G (or 4G/3G) since these are simply standards used for internet speeds, that are usually used for a mobile telephone, not landline models such as ours. Our models work in the same way so there will not be a model that will support a 5G system. -M
