Q: Can I use the CD111A without a base unit? A: No. The CD111A is an add-on handset. It requires a Vtech CS111A base or compatible Vtech DECT 6.0 base to send/receive calls.

Q: Does the CD111A have an answering machine? A: No. The handset itself has no answering function. You need voicemail from your phone company or a separate answering machine.

Q: Is the Vtech CD111A hearing aid compatible? A: Yes, it has a TIA-1083 compliant handset, making it compatible with most hearing aid T-coils.
