How to turn ringer on Update (06/11/2018) How do I turn the ringer on in my 8501wp Uniden phone

@supersue ,Sue, In standby: increase the ringer volume using arrow up button. Silent Mode from page 11 of manual. You can silence the ringers on the base and all handsets for a specific period of time.

  1. With the phone in standby, press and hold # on any handset. The phone
    

prompts you to select the number of hours (1 - 9 or Always On) that you want it to stay in silent mode. 2. To confirm, press # or just wait about 5 seconds. The phone turns on the answering system and displays Silent Mode On on each handset. 3. After the selected number of hours, the phone automatically exits silent mode. ((To exit silent mode manually, press and hold # again)). Perhaps the user guide may help, link below. Good luck. I hope this helped you out, if so let me know by pressing the helpful button. https://www.101phones.com/content/pdf/un
