A:AnswerWhen a landline call is being received, the SP-PHONE indicator flashes rapidly. When new messages have been recorded the message indicator on the base unit flashes.
A:AnswerWe recommend you the Panasonic KX-TGM450S Amplified Cordless Phone with Answering Machine. This will give you much more flexibility to adjust the volume. Consult the manufacturer of any personal medical devices, such as pacemakers or hearing aids, to determine if they are adequately shielded from external RF (radio frequency) energy. (The product operates in the frequency range of 1.92 GHz to 1.93 GHz, and the RF transmission power is 115 mW (max.)).
A:AnswerHello Nate! The range of the telephone system is around 30 feet from the main base unit. Keep in mind that this range will be further affected by the material and thickness of the walls. We hope this helps! - F
A:AnswerHello there! You can insert two AAA (R03) batteries into the main base unit of the phone system that will power the unit temporarily in the event of a power failure! We hope this helps! - F
A:AnswerThe answer provided by Panasonic did not address the question and in addition the quoted range of 2-10 feet is incorrect.
I would still like to know if this phone is a Bluetooth Class 1 device.
Bluetooth has 3 classes that specify the transmission power output. The most common class is 2 which has a range of 10 meters (33 feet), Class 1 transmits with a higher power output. Class 1 devices have a range of 100 meters (330 feet).
All of Panasonic's Bluetooth enabled phones explicitly state they are Class 1 devices except the KX-TG975 model which does not mention what class it is in the online specs or the manual. (As to what version (not class) of Bluetooth is implemented, all of Panasonic's Bluetooth phones are on version 4.2.)
A:AnswerThe range from the base to the handsets of Panasonic phones can vary depending on the environmental conditions in which they are used. Keep in mind that walls, interference, and other factors can affect the range and signal quality. Factors such as the construction materials of your home or office, the presence of other electronic devices, and interference from nearby wireless networks can all impact the effective range of a cordless phone. -M
A:AnswerIn addition to the standard manual call block function, this model offers two additional options for call blocking. One of these features is automated call block. With automated call block, the device screens incoming calls before ringing for permitted calls, or it terminates calls without ringing for calls identified as robocalls, telemarketing calls, or other unwanted calls (available for Caller ID subscribers). The unit plays a greeting message for automated call block and prompts the caller to enter an access code to determine if the call is automated. Additionally, you can utilize Telemarketing call block to further filter calls and prevent telemarketer calls from reaching you. With this feature, the unit prompts callers to announce their names, and after verifying the names, you can choose whether to answer the calls or not. -M
