Review: A Problem with Mains Lead - The Lead on this phone as it came from USA and Canada was intermittent and in the end stopped working i` have contacted the supplier awaiting a reply.
Review: DO NOT BUY IF RESIDENT IN THE UK - Would have been a minus 1 for the stars. - The cables are not compatible with the UK. We bought an adaptor at a cost of £9.99 which didn't work either, they have refunded the money no problem. We returned the phone to Las Vegas at a cost of £32.70. We have not had confirmation that the phone has been received back, nor the postage. A very expensive mistake.

## 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.
