I can't figure out how to turn off the ringer...and it is loud. But maybe there is a way. However, if set, it will tell you who is calling...outloud...in a computerized voice. I haven't figured that out either. So...even if you can shut those things off I don't really recommend it. The cordless phone piece sits in a light-weight non-stable, plastic stand. Easy to knock over...very annoying. If you have already purchased, turning the ringer off is in the fine print...I'm sure!

There is the capability of silencing the ring tone, however,one must reactivate the ring tone manually. No know call blocking feature. One may set the ring tone to off for callers that block their number(s). Hope this helps. Overall we are pleased with this product.

It is a 4 line phone. Not an answering machine. If your speaking of the intercom on it there is a volume control on top of the phone. There is also a DND (Do Not Disturb) button.

I have the KX-TG4772 model and turned off the answering system by pressing the "Answer On/Off" button on the right side of the base unit. When the red light above the button goes off, the answering system is disabled. You can also use the handset to turn the answering system off. On the handset, press menu #328 to turn answering system off. To turn it back on, press menu #327. Hope this helps.
