No, it cannot. Also, I have only had this phone for about 2 months and it broke. It is not a good quality at all.

Well, actually, mine wont turn on, but I hear that's a good thing. There's a little door on the back your have to pry off. If I remember right, its smaller than a matchbook cover. Behind it there's an on/off switch. Keep your fingers crossed that it works. Mine phone has worked fine except the ringer btw.

Mine can't have the ringer turned off. But we like the phone a lot. Working fine after many months.

Yes. You also can set each individual phone's ringer to how loud or low you'd like it, even turn the ringer off if you want. Neither phone base has a volume control.

The ringer can be adjusted from very soft to very loud. Have not found a way to shut off ringer and instructions do not specify. A very nice phone.

I guess that would be the downfall of the phone. I have not found a way to turn the ringer off or down, other than to unplug it. I don't mind as I do not get many calls on the land line. Thanks!

So far, I have not found an "off" button but I haven't read the entire manual. There is a mute button. The volume of the ring can be turned way down or up to super loud. When I turned down the volume of the ringer, it was very quiet.

Yes. Menu then initial settings, select button . Scroll down to talking caller ID and press select button and then you can turn off the handset and/or base unit.by selecting the hand set or base unit and turn it off. Hope this helps.

Yes, you can put the ringer on silent. It's on page 26 of the instruction book. The phone has the feature that annouces who is calling and you can also turn that off.

The model I have which is very similar to this model does have a ringer switch that can be switched off.

There is a switch on the side of the phone base - you can either turn off the ringer or adjust the volume.

You can turn down the ringer volume all the way until it is off. There is no external switch it must be done from the menu.

Yes. Under Menu 'SETUP HS', RINGER VOLUME CAN BE SET FROM "OFF" AND "UP" TO 5-LEVELS. Also has Ringer Tone adjustment .

Yes........on the back of the phone there are two switches. One is to turn the ringer off, and the other one is to control the ringer volume.

Yes, it can be shut-off but we really like it. Also the caller block system is terrific! It's an excellent buy. Hope this helps with your decision. Donna

Yes, the ringer can be turned off. The ringer is very annoying so we turned it off and allow the cordless phones let us know when a call comes in.
1326053
yes you can. What you can't easily do is to turn off the ringer if you are trying not to answer the phone call.

Yes BUT I didn't like that I had to press so many buttons on the menu to do so....I used to have a phone that had an external volume for the ringer, so it was easy to turn it on or off just by touch....now I can't find that kind of phone anymore
