Before you begin
About Caller Identification
Caller ID with Call Waiting features in
this telephone let you see who’s calling
before you answer the phone, even
when you’re on another call. These
features require services provided by
your local telephone company.
Contact your telephone service
provider if:
• You have both Caller ID and Call
Waiting, but as separate services
(you may need combined service).
• You have only Caller ID service, or
only Call Waiting service.
• You don’t subscribe to any Caller
ID or Call Waiting services.
You can use this phone with regular
Caller ID service, and you can use its
other features without subscribing to
either Caller ID or combined Caller ID
with Call Waiting service. There may
be fees for these services, and they
may not be available in all areas.
Caller ID features will work only if
both you and the caller are in areas
offering Caller ID service, and if both
telephone companies use compatible
equipment.
See Caller ID Operation, beginning on
page 24, for more details about how
these features work.
Telephone operating range
This cordless telephone operates with
the maximum power allowed by the
Federal Communications Commission
(FCC). Even so, the handset and base
can communicate over only a certain
distance — which can vary with the
locations of the base and handset, the
weather, and the construction of your
home or office.
If you receive a call while you are
out of range, the handset might not
ring — or if it does ring, the call might
not connect when you press PHONE.
Move closer to the base, then press
PHONE to answer the call.
If you move out of range during a
phone conversation, you might hear
noise or interference. To improve
reception, move closer to the base.
If you move out of range without
pressing OFF, your phone will be left
off the hook. To hang up properly,
walk back toward the telephone base,
periodically pressing OFF until the call
is disconnected.

Caller ID Logs
Caller ID Log
Shared Caller ID Log
The Caller ID Log is stored in the base, and is shared
by all handsets. Changes made at any one handset will
be reflected in all.
How Caller ID works
If you subscribe to Caller ID service provided by your
local phone company, information about each caller will
be displayed after the first ring.
Information about the last 50 incoming calls is stored in
the call log. You can review the call log to find out who
has called, easily return the call, or copy the caller’s
name and number into your directory.
When the call log is full, the oldest entry is deleted to
make room for new incoming call information.
If you answer a call before the information appears on
the screen, it will not be saved in the call log.
NOTE
: Only one handset can review the call log at a time. If another
handset attempts to enter the call log, it will display NOT AVAILABLE AT
THIS TIME.
NOTE
: Caller ID features will work only if both you and the caller are in
areas offering Caller ID service, and if both telephone companies use compatible equipment.

Adding new handsets
Your telephone can accommodate up to four cordless handsets. You can add new
handsets (E560-2, sold separately) to the E5640 and E5643B at any time, but each
handset must be registered with the base before use.
The handset provided with your E5640 is automatically registered as Handset 1.
Additional handsets will be assigned numbers in the order they are registered
(Handset 2, Handset 3, or Handset 4). You can register a maximum of 4 handsets.
The E5643B has 3 handsets automatically registered as Handset 1, 2 and 3. You can
register one additional handset, which will be assigned number 4.
The E5644B has 4 handsets automatically registered as Handsets 1, 2, 3 and 4. You
cannot register any additional handsets to the E5644B.
NOTE:
You can replace E5644B handsets (see page 40).

Troubleshooting
If you have difficulty with your phone, please try the suggestions below. For Customer
Service, visit our web site at www.telephones.att.com, or call 1-800-222-3111.
Telephone
does not
work at all
• Make sure battery is installed and charged correctly (see page 9).
• Make sure the AC adapter is plugged into an outlet not controlled by
a wall switch.
• Make sure the telephone line cord is plugged firmly into the base unit
and the modular jack.
• If you have dial-pulse telephone service, make sure the dial mode is
set to pulse (see page 19).
• Make sure all extension phones are hung up.
• Disconnect the base from the modular jack and plug in a working
telephone. If this phone does not work, the problem is probably in
your wiring or local service. Call your local telephone service company.
• If these suggestions do not work, unplug the base, remove and reinsert the battery, then place the handset in the base to re-initialize.
Phone does
not ring
• Make sure the ringer is on (see page 18).
• Make sure the telephone line cord and AC adapter are plugged in
properly (see page 8).
• Move the handset closer to the base.
• You might have too many extension phones on your telephone line to
allow all of them to ring. Try unplugging some of them.
If you hear
noise or
interference
during a call
• You may be out of range. Move closer to the base.
• Appliances plugged into the same circuit as the base can cause
interference. Try moving the appliance or base to another outlet.
• The layout of your home or office might be limiting the operating
range. Try moving the base to another location, preferably on an
upper floor.
• Disconnect the base from the modular jack and plug in a corded telephone. If calls are still not clear, the problem is probably in your
wiring or local service. Call your local telephone service company.
• Do you have DSL service? If so, you need to have a DSL filter
installed at every phone jack that has a phone connected to it.
Contact your DSL service provider for filter information.
• Other nearby cordless telephones can cause interference. Try moving one of the cordless telephone bases.

Incomplete
messages
• If a caller leaves a very long message, part of it may be lost when the
system disconnects the call after 4 minutes.
• If the caller pauses for more than 7 seconds, the system stops
recording and disconnects the call.
• If the system’s memory becomes full during a message, the system
stops recording and disconnects the call.
• If the caller's voice is very soft, the system may stop recording and
disconnect the call.
Difficulty
hearing messages
• Press VOLUME ^ on the base to increase speaker volume.
System does
not answer
after correct
number of
rings
• Make sure that the answering system is on (see page 27).
• If Toll Saver is activated, the number of rings changes to 2 when you
have new messages waiting (see page 31).
• In some cases, the system may be affected by the ringing system
used by the local telephone company.
• If the memory is full or the system is off, the system will answer after
10 rings.
“CL” flashes
in message
window
• You need to reset the answering system clock (see page 28).
Announcement
message is not
clear
• When you record your announcement, make sure you speak in a
normal tone of voice, about nine inches from the base.
• Make sure there is no background noise (TV, music, etc.) while you
are recording.
System does
not respond
to remote
commands
• Make sure to enter your remote access code correctly (see page 35).
• Make sure you are calling from a touch-tone phone. When you dial a
number, you should hear tones. If you hear clicks, the phone is not a
touch-tone telephone and cannot activate the answering system.
• The answering system may not detect the remote access code while
your announcement is playing. Try waiting until the announcement is
over before entering the code.
• There may be noise or interference on the phone line you are using.
Press dial-pad buttons firmly.
Troubleshooting
Problem Suggestion
• Make sure answering system in on (see page 27).
• Make sure Announce Only is off.
