How to turn of ringer on cordless phone?
I've inherited a cordless phone from a friend who skipped town and
left me to clean up after him. It's a Panasonic KX-TCM937 which has a ringer off switch on the side of the base unit. But even when the switch is in the off position the phone still rings. Maybe the switch is broken, but I'm wondering if their might be two ringers: one in the base unit and one in the cordless handset. But if there is a separate ringer in the handset I can't find a way to turn it off. I tried a web search for a user's manual but struck out. I got hundreds of thousands of hits, and gave up trying to wade through them. But I bet the info I need is out there somewhere if I could just figure out how to search for it. I'd be grateful to for help figuring out how to turn off the ringer. |

If it beeps twice, that means the ringer is now set to "off". Rick |

How to turn of ringer on cordless phone?
Usually the handset ringer is set via button sequence on the handset. I
have a Lucent cordless and i can select through 5 ringers by pressing PROG # (1-5) PROG. If you are lucky, yours is similar.

How to turn of ringer on cordless phone?
This is for the handset. Most of the Panasonic models have a Function button
of some type. Press it once, and scroll through the menu. As for the base, most of them have a button specifically for the ringer setting. The older and low end models should have a 2 or 3 position switch on the side of the base, and handset for this. -- Greetings, Jerry Greenberg GLG Technologies GLG ========================================= WebPage http://www.zoom-one.com Electronics http://www.zoom-one.com/electron.htm ========================================= "Clueless in Seattle" wrote in message om...
