Unplug this voice terminal from its modular wall jack. Plug your voice terminal into that jack and check if it gets a dial tone. 4If your voice terminal still does not work, plug the working voice terminal (of the same type) into your modular wall jack. If the working voice terminal has dial tone, your own voice terminal is faulty. See your System Manager. bbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbb c c c c c c c c c c c c c c c c c c c c c c c c c c c c c c c c c c c c bb bbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbb Problem Solutionbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbb The telephone does not ring.1Set the ringer volume to a higher level. 2Place a test call from another extension to your extension. 3Check the line cord to make certain it is securely connected at both ends. 4If there is still a problem, see your System Manager. bbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbb The lights do not go on next to the buttons.1Check the line cord to make certain it is securely connected at both ends. 2If there is still a problem, see your System Manager. bbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbb c c c c c c c c c c c c c c c c c c c c c c c c c c c c c c c c c 24
