TROUBLESHOOTING
2. A RFI (Radio Frequency Interference) filter can be placed on the
line to help minimize or eliminate radio or CB transmissions. Try
relocating the telephone to another area.
Unable To Hear Phone Ringer
1. Too many phone or phone devices on a line may cause your
phone to not ring. Disconnect one (1) or two (2) of the devices
to see if the problem is eliminated. If not, contact your local
phone company for load guide lines.
2. If power is not being supplied to the phone, the extra loud ringer
will not work.
Volume Control Does Not Work
BOOST must be activated to turn on the additional amplification.
Static On The Line
1. Your phone may be located near a touch lamp, microwave,
refrigerator or other household appliances. Try relocating your
phone to another area.
2. A cordless phone on your line may cause static. Try disconnecting
the cordless phone. This may eliminate the problem.
3. Extra devices attached to the telephone, such as CID units and
answering machines may cause static. Disconnecting the devices
may eliminate the problem.
4. If there is also a DSL service in the home, this will cause
interference on the line. That interference is then amplified by
the phone, causing a less than optimal quality of conversation.
Install the phone line filter provided by the DSL service provider
to reduce the amount of interference on the line.
Unable to Access Automated Systems
Automated systems used by banks, long distance voicemail and other
applications require that a phone be set to "tone" dialing. Check
the switch on the back of the phone labeled "T/P" and set to "T."
This will enable the phone to be compatible with these automated
systems.

TROUBLESHOOTING
If No Power is being Supplied to the Phone.
1. If the power goes out, or the AC Adapter is not properly
connected to the phone, several functions of the phone will
not work. The amplification, extra loud ringer, and the lighted
keypad will not function properly.
2. The phone will drain the backup batteries very quickly. This
will cause the need for the batteries to be changed frequently
and the Low Battery indicator light to constantly illuminate.
Do I Need to Install Batteries?
Batteries are optional. They provide backup in case of a
power outage. They are recommended in areas of frequent
power outages. This phone uses four (4) alkaline batteries.
They will sustain the following functions: amplification, keypad
backlighting and loud ringer volume.
Still Not Working?
If, after going through this checklist, the XL50 is still not
functioning properly, press the blue ClarityLogic button
(upper right corner of the phone) for direct access to a
Customer Care Representative.
