Is this Oricom care170 phone still available?
Hi Liz, thanks for the message. The CARE170 is a discontinued model. Please check out oricom.com.au for the available models in the current range. All the best, Oricom.
Have just installed the phone which works really well for outgoing calls. I have a problem in that it will not allow incoming calls. Those who try and phone in hear silence for a while followed by the disconnected sound. If we replace the phone with the old one normality is restored

My Mum has had the Care 170 phone for about 6 years and lately the light keeps flashing we have checked and there are no messages on this phone as per the manual and the only way we can stop the light flashing is disconnect the phone and remove the batteries. Is there anything else we can do to stop this?

.I would like to purchase an ORICOM Care170. Could you let me know where they are available and will I me able to purchase one online.
I took delivery of my Oricom Care 170; looks like it is going to be very good.
I am still working my way through the guide. At the stage the only concern is that it isn't possible to have the ring on at very quiet or even silent for certain situations. I have changed it from 'high' to 'low' and it when the phone rings it still reverberates throughout the house. Perhaps the only way is to unplug when sleeping but I shall continue to investigate. One would have thought that 'low' would have been a lot lower than the HIGH but it doesn't appear so. Maybe this phone has an error in this line. All other features are perfect.
Any suggestion?
Regards Marilyn.
