Hearing Aid Compatible
Compatible with most hearing aids that have a telecoil facility in the aid, the Geemarc AmpliDECT 295 Combi Photo Phone and Answering Machine is ideal if you're hard of hearing. The phones have a receiving volume of up to 30dB on the corded phone and 22dB on the photo handset, allowing you to adjust the volume according to your needs.
Photo Memory Storage
Not only is this product ideal if you're hard of hearing, but it's also perfect if you aren't as mobile as you once were, or if you aren't able to see as well as you once did. This is because both phones have photo memory buttons: three with a picture display on the corded phone and four photo buttons on the cordless phone. The integrated phone book also allows you to store an additional 50 names and numbers, meaning you're able to contact your friends and family with just a few presses of a button.
How Do the Photo Buttons Work?
AmpliDECT 295 systems, both the base and handset versions, are equipped with photo speed dial buttons that allow you to contact your loved ones at the touch of a button. You can use this easy-to-use template to upload your own pictures, and then print them out in the right size for the photo phone buttons.
Please note that for base and handset combination sets, the memory buttons on the handset will retrieve the same set of direct memory speed dial entries stored in the base.
Can I Connect This Phone to My Internet Modem?
Yes, if you subscribe to a digital phone line from your landline provider, this phone can be connected by plugging the telephone cord directly into your internet modem.
How Can the AmpliDECT Combi Base Be Mounted?
This phone includes a clever mounting bracket that can be swivelled between wall and table mounting positions. See the images below for a quick demonstration of the mounting procedure (also covered in pages 5 and 6 of the user manual):
Table Mounting Position
Once you've attached the mounting bracket to the central hinge, clip it into place with the white rubber feet facing downwards to achieve the table mount position.
Central Hinge
To switch positions, simply unclip the mounting bracket and swivel on the central hinge as show below.
Wall Mount Position
Clip the mounting bracket to the bottom of the back of the phone to achieve the wall mounting position, as shown below.
Does This Phone Feature Caller ID?
Yes, this phone can display Caller ID, providing it is supplied in your current package by your service provider. It will store the last 50 numbers, allowing you to scroll back through your last calls for reference.
How Do I Apply the Photos?
The photo buttons can be flipped up, at which point you can easily insert the photos that you have cut to size. The diagram below shows the process of placing your photos into the photo buttons.
Can I Set A Distinct Ring for Each Caller?
Yes, you can set a different ring for each caller in your phonebook, allowing the user to easily identify the caller from the ring alone. Each AmpliDECT 295 handset features five standard rings and five polyphonic rings, while the base itself features five standard rings. This provides plenty of room for customisation to ensure important numbers can have a distinct ring.
Does the Phone Light Up When Receiving a Call?
When an incoming call is detected, the red LED light at the top of each handset will illuminate. This light brightly and steadily flashes, clearly signifying that a call is on the line.
Will the Corded Phone Work in a Power Outage?
Yes, the corded desk phone will work in the event of a power failure, but the call amplification, ringer amplification and phonebook features will be disabled, as these functions are powered by the mains power adaptor. Outgoing and receiving calls will work, but with a standard receiver volume (roughly 8dB).
