Four Photo Memories on Base
The four empty slots on the base can be fitted with pictures of those closest to you. This way, you can reach them in the easiest way, without having to worry about remembering important phone numbers. The photo memories are equipped with vocal VIP ringers, which means the telephone alternates ringer and the recorded name, allowing you to instantly call your loved ones without confusion.
How Do I Add Photos to the Photo Buttons?
To add a photo to the photo buttons, simply print out the photos of your loved ones in a small 3 x 2cm size. After that, simply place the photo into one of the supplied transparent photo covers, and snap onto the desired buttons. Simple instructions for setting each photo button's number can be found in the User Instruction Manual near the bottom of this page.
What Is the Range of the Handset?
The Swissvoice Xtra 2155 uses a wireless DECT connection, allowing it to achieve high levels of clarity away from the phone base. The range of the cordless handset depends on the surrounding conditions, and is usually up to 50 metres away from the base when used in a typical indoor environment.
Is The Xtra 2155 Compatible with Hearing Aids?
This amplified telephone has been created specifically for people with hearing difficulties, which is why it can easily be used in conjunction with your hearing aid. This is an ideal solution to ensure every word can be heard in a conversation, even for individuals with severe hearing loss.
