## Questions & Answers

**Q: Can it be used as a wall phone?**
A: Yes.  It can be used as a wall phone.  It can be used as a desk phone or a wall phone.

**Q: What are the "2 non-standard batteries required"?  Will phone work in a power failure?**
A: That description about "2 non-standard batteries" appears to be in error.The manual for this phone is available at http://cdn-media-att.vtp-media.com/ecp/documents//product_Product/1889//8359/CL4940_UM_6.pdf.  If you look through the manual carefully, you will see that it specifies a power adapter, but makes no mention of batteries.On page 13 of the manual, it says:This telephone provides minimal functionality during a power failure. When AC power is not available, the screen is blank and many telephone features do not function. Only touch-tone dialing and handset volume adjustment are supported. The telephone uses power from the telephone line to enable you to make and answer calls using only the handset and dialing keys.

**Q: can you record your own voice for this answer machine or do you have to use pre-recorded message provided by mfg.**
A: You have a choice of using the automatic announcement or you can make your own by pressing Menu Select. Press it again and select Answering System. Then press ID or DIR to select "Record New" The system will tell you to announce your message, then press 5 when you are done. Then your own announcement will play. To listen to your own announcement again, scroll to "Play Current" and press Menu/Select. You can always change your message or go back to the recorded announcement. Just do things in reverse. The recorded announcement is a permanent part of the system, so you don't have to worry about it being deleted. Hope this helps.  Regards, Paul

**Q: Is the LCD display light always on or just when callings are coming through or in use?**
A: The light is only on when a call comes through and in use. Once you hang up it turns off.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Great corded desk phone that offers many features
*by R***E on June 26, 2015*

I'm using this phone right now. I like a not cordless phone for my major calling on my home phone since I was surprised when I picked up my cordless phone to hear my neighbor having a conversation on her wireless phone, and I also heard a neighbor's baby monitor (and whatever conversation was near it) on my wireless phone (years ago). I feel more secure with a wired phone so I know that my neighbors cannot accidentally hear my conversation. This phone caller ID panel lights up orange only when there is an incoming call. It makes the extra large text of the caller ID display stand out so it is easier to read. It has an "in use" bar at the top of the caller ID panel that flashes orange for an incoming call (and the phone also rings if it is set to audible ring). This "in use" bar does not light up when another extension phone is being used, but an LCD message "Line in Use" is displayed on the caller ID panel so someone knows whether an extension phone is off the hook or not to pick up the phone if someone else (or a fax machine) is using it. It has a built-in answering machine (I do not use), a good speakerphone, mute, flash, audio assist, extra large buttons that are easy to see and easy to use caller ID log list. I purchased this phone for my Mom who has macular degeneration and bought a second one for me. It was easy for me to set up. I replaced my previous phone with this one since I could not read the caller ID very well since it was totally LCD and did not display too well in daylight, and the panel for the caller ID did not tilt toward me. This phone's caller ID panel can be flat or tilt upward if you are using it on a table surface. Highly recommended!
