You can turn the answering machine off...and I do believe that you can also turn down the answer volume. It's at my parents house , so I would have to check.

I don't know but would suggest that you look up the book of directions as it should be online.

Yes, you can put the ringer on silent. It's on page 26 of the instruction book. The phone has the feature that annouces who is calling and you can also turn that off.

Yes. Press Menu with the phone off. Press select to select Play messages. Options during playback: increase/decrease volume to adjust message volume. Press 6 to skip to next message, press 4 to repeat the message or press 4 twice to hear the previous message. Press 3 or delete to delete the playing message. On the corded phone you press 7 to delete messages ??? Hope this helps, if not blame the manual !

Yes. There is a switch about 1/3 of the way from the top on the right side of the base. Slide it all the way down and that turns off the ringer. The middle setting is for low volume. Thanks for asking, as I learned something useful too.

Press "Menu" on the base, arrow to "Ringers," and press the down arrow on the "Volume" button, you can turn the ringer off. It will stay off if you press "Menu/Select" to save your preference. PS--If you have the Caller ID feature, the phone will not announce the number when the volume is in the "Off" position.

Hi Elsie, Yes you can turn off talking caller ID. thru options in the menu. Please see Ambar B;s answer (Feb.6) to see how. It;s not hard. Good luck. R.M.

I guess that would be the downfall of the phone. I have not found a way to turn the ringer off or down, other than to unplug it. I don't mind as I do not get many calls on the land line. Thanks!

Yes, you definitely can. The only thing I have NOT been able to figure out, however, is how to make it beep when there is a message waiting to be heard. If I don't make a point of actually looking at the phone after we've been out, I end up not responding for literally hours, because I just don't realize there's a message there. pat

I have a V-Tech phone, Model i6767 which in the set up allows for the answering machine to beep when a new message has been received but not accessed. It's a great phone. My only complaint is you can totally turn off the ringer and you can lower the sound on the answering machine to not hear an incoming message, but when someone leaves a message it BEEPS which wakes me up. Other than this, it's a great phone. WHY DID THEY DO THAT!!!!

Yes, it is very easy to set the volume to off using the base or any handset. You can make the change to apply to only the base or you can select all and it will apply to all handsets as well.

You can turn down the ringer volume all the way until it is off. There is no external switch it must be done from the menu.

yes. You can turn off any of the ringers or all of them and calls will go to the answering machine.

Yes, the answering machine allows you to hear the message as it is being delivered. You can also turn that feature off.

Sorry, but I am coming up with the same thing as you. The only thing I can figure is that you may just tap it for mute and hold down for off. I have not had a chance to try this yet so I am just guessing. Hope this is of some help.

You cannot hear your message but you can hear the caller if the phone is set for call screening. Hope this helps. Amelia

Not the base of the phone. Press MENU up or down to RINGERS -- select RINGER VOLUME -- select RINGER OFF. You should check your "QUICK START GUIDE" for any other info.
