can the ringer be silenced? I see clients and don't want the phone to ring.

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!

Yes, just push the down arrow and adjust the ring level from high all the way down to off.

Hi Tammy. There is an on off button on the headset. It actually turns off the unit, so you would not continue to hear your customer, but I do use it for muting if it's brief. Hope that helps.

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 you can, but I usually use the mute feature on my phone. The device comes with a instruction book that tells you how to mute it.

According to the instructions printed on the box, this speaker does not have mute function to silence the speaker when a call comes in. Probably the only thing you can do is turn off the speaker using the power switch.

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

nc - Yes! Ringer can be turned off; answering system can be turned off. Base and handset have independent ringers, btw.

You can turn the ringer off by pressing Menu #160, then press volume down and save...and it also has a Silent Mode where you can set certain times to be silent. I don't know the shortcut for that, but it's Menu &gt; Initial Setting &gt; Ringer Setting &gt; Silent Mode. I normally just turn the ringer off like above so I use the shortcut, very simple.

Not exactly sure if device itself has a mute feature, but if you mute the call using mute option on device, you should achieve desired result

The Ringer can be put on off, low or high. I just tested it. The phone works very well. Both the speaker and hand held are clear and can be adjusted for volume. It also has a jack for a headset. I would buy again.

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.

I looked in the manual and there is nothing in there to indicate you can shut the ringer off.

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.

Yes. The ringer can be turned off by scrolling the menu until you see ringer. Once there, select ringer volume. Lower volume until ringer is turned off. I hope this helps.

Yes the ringer can be turned off. Press volume when phone is not in use and phone will not ring.

My cell device does not offer this as a feature so I can not say if you would hear the callers name. I do hear the phone rings and my specific ring announcements (you have a text, your mother is call, its the boss do not answer the phone). I suspect that hearing names would work.

yes you can. What you can't easily do is to turn off the ringer if you are trying not to answer the phone call.
