Troubleshooting Solutions

Why is my display blank?

Ensure that power is being provided to your phone. Make sure your phone is plugged 
into a power source.

Why is my speakerphone not working?

If you press the 

 button and the speaker light flashes and you do not hear dial 

tone through the speaker phone, the Set Audio option in the phone’s Options list has 
been set up for headset use. Press 

 a second time and if the light goes out, the 

phone has been set up to be used only with a headset or handset. If the light stays on 
steady and you hear dial tone, the phone has been set up so that you can alternate 
between the speakerphone and the headset by pressing 

 . See the section, 

 for instructions on how to change the Set Audio option.

Why can’t I get a dial tone?

Check for any loose connections and that the phone has been installed properly. For 
installation instructions, please refer to the “Installation and Setup” section in the 
Aastra 53i Installation Guide provided with your phone.

Why doesn’t my phone ring?

Check the ring volume on your phone. It may be turned down or turned off. To adjust 
the ringer volume setting, press the volume button when the phone is on-hook and 
idle. For more information, refer to the “Adjusting Volume section” in the Aastra 
53i Installation Guide provided with your phone.

Why is the light not coming on with a new Voice Mail Message?

Your phone system or service provider must provide “Visual” Message Waiting 
service for this function to work. Check with your System Administrator for more 
information.

How do I find the IP address of my phone?

Instructions on where to find the IP address of your phone can be found in this guide
