A:AnswerHello! Yes, you can press and hold 0 on a handset to quickly turn off the ringer or you can adjust the volume to 0 from the settings. The unit also has a silent mode that you can program. -M
A:AnswerI don't know. But it happened to us as well. We found a fudge workaround. Every time it happens, we hit the numbers, which tweet loudly and seem to reset the system, allowing voice again.
A:AnswerHi! To turn off Talking Caller ID on the handsets, press MENU # 162 > go to OFF > press SAVE. To turn it off on the base unit, press MENU #* 162 > go to OFF > press SAVE. -M
A:AnswerFrom the center, push the left arrow and it will give you a * sign. Then push the letter of the name you want to call, and it will put you in that letter's section. Then you must scroll down. Faster than scrolling from the top!
A:AnswerHello! The compatible batteries for the phones are HHR-4DPA. Also, the recommended battery type is Nickel metal hydride (Ni-MH) and 2 x AAA (R03) size for each handset. Hope this helps! -C

A:AnswerHello! No, you do not need individual phone jacks, as the handsets can be registered to the main base unit. For the base unit, you need to connect the AC adaptor to the unit by pressing the plug firmly, then fasten the cord by hooking it and connect the AC adaptor to the power outlet. Then, connect the telephone line cord to the unit, then to the single-line telephone jack (RJ11C) until you hear a click. A DSL/ADSL filter (not supplied) is required if you have a DSL/ADSL service. -C
