how is the ringer silenced?

From the Manual Using Special Features Silent Mode You can silence the ringers on the base and all handsets for a specific period of time: the answering system answers any incoming calls without playing anything through the speaker. 1. With the phone in standby, press and hole # on any handset. The phone prompts you to select the number of hours (1-9 or Always On0 that you want it to stay in silent mode. 2. To confirm, press # or just wait about 5 Seconds. The phone turns on the answering system and displays Silent Mode On each handset. 3. After the selected number of hours, the phone automatically exits silent mode. To exit silent mode manually, press and hold # again. If the phone is in silent mode and you turn off the answering system, the phone exits silent mode.

To silence the ringer for a specific time the answering machine answers without playing anything through the speakers and to silence the ringers press # key and you are prompted to select 1 to 9 hours or always on that you want to stay in silent mode. Hope this helps.

It's not exactly a mute button but the handsets can be programmed not to ring for a specific period of time. I have not used that feature but it is covered on Pg 29 of the manual

This phone does have a silent mode which allows you to set a period of time during which the handset will not ring for outside calls. This is in addition to turning the ringer off. Hope this helps.

Actually, yes! I have the product manual in front of me. The default setting plays the incoming messages over the base speaker, but you can turn that off by turning off Call Screen in the settings menu. (It will still record messages, just not play them out loud.) Another way to achieve this is to turn on Silent Mode, which also turns off the ringer. A nice feature is you can set Silent Mode indefinitely or for 1-9 hours, so if you're having a party you won't have to remember to turn the ringer back on later.

There is no problem with hearing the phone ring. There is also an option on the phone where you can adjust to having your phone in your purse...rings louder

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.

Yes - You can turn the ringer completely off in the phone settings. It stays off until you turn it back on.

Well it has a very loud ringer which is good, lightweight, the light on it will let you know if a call is coming thru if the ringer happens to be silenced which happens when you have small kids like I do. Only thing I was disappointed in is the fact that it advertised a mute button but there was none.

There is a switch on the side of the phone base - you can either turn off the ringer or adjust the volume.

You have to open the front of the case to answer the phone. Then simply fold the front toward the back of the case to answer the call. I set my ringer on medium - high and have no problem hearing it.

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.

I don't understand the question. Are you asking if the phone ringer can be muted so it does not ring, but you could still answer the phone?

Yes - the ringer can be turned off completely, with the phone letting you know it is ringing by flashing a red light in sync with what would have been the ringing. It is a very nice feature

John - the ringers can be raised or lowered. "Very loud" is subjective to each individual. We believe it gets rather loud. Thanks!

I am sorry I don't have the answer to your question as I have my cell phone connected to the phone. I have trouble hearing my cell phone ring at times as this way I can hear it ring clearly. I hope you can find the answer you need.
