Troubleshooting
If you have difficulty with your phone, please try the suggestions
listed below.
As a general rule, if a problem occurs, remove the batteries
from all the handsets in your installation for about 1 minute,
then disconnect and reconnect the power supply to the base
and reinstall the handset batteries.
Always
check first
that
:
Everyday use
“I cannot make or
answer calls”
You have followed all the steps listed in the user
manual to install and set up your telephone.
All connectors are firmly inserted in their sockets.
Mains power to the base unit is switched on at the
socket.
The handset’s batteries are correctly and securely
installed and are not run down.
If the handset’s display is blank, it may have been
switched off. Press and hold the HANG-UP/EXIT
key to switch it back on.
Check that the base unit’s mains power adapter is
plugged in and power is switched on.
The base unit needs mains power for normal
operation of the phone - not just for charging the
batteries.
Make sure you are using the telephone line cable
supplied with your telephone.
Other telephone line cables might not work.
Move the handset closer to the base unit.
Check the battery level symbol on the display. If it is
low, replace the handset on the base unit or charger
pod to recharge the batteries.
Switch off power at the mains socket, wait for a
short time and then switch back on. This may solve
the problem.
Batteries
“The handset’s
battery cells are
running low within
an hour or two”
“I try to recharge the
batteries but I still
get a warning that
they are low”
If the fault persists...
Before you first use the handset, you should have
left it on the base unit or charger pod for 15 hours
to charge the batteries fully. You may need to
replace the batteries. Check the connection
between the base unit and the mains power socket
unit.
You need to replace the batteries.
Dispose of used batteries safely – never burn them,
or put them where they could get punctured. Do not
use non - rechargeable batteries in your handset –
they may explode, causing damage.
Disconnect all other instruments connected to the
same line and try to make a call.
Disconnect the base unit from the telephone line
and plug a different phone into the master
telephone socket.
Try making a call. If this works, the line is OK.
If the call does not work, and you are using a two-
way socket adapter, remove it and plug a telephone
directly into the socket.
If the call now works, the adapter may be faulty.
If you cannot make a call, the fault may be on the
exchange line.
Contact the service provider.
“When I press on
the keys, nothing
happens”
“When I key in a
number, it appears
on the display, but I
cannot make an
outside call”
“The phone does
not ring”
“I hear ‘beeps’ from
my handset while
I’m on a call”
“When I try to make
a call, I hear busy
tone”
“The volume in the
earpiece is low
when I’m on a call”
Make sure the batteries are fitted in your handset
.
If the Battery Level symbol on the display shows
‘low’, put your handset back on the cradle to charge.
Try a different position for the base unit –
somewhere higher if possible, or further from other
electrical equipment.
Try moving the handset closer to the base unit.
Check that the base unit’s mains power adapter is
plugged in and power is switched on.
Check that ring volume is not on OFF.
You may be going out of range of the base unit.
Move closer or your call may be cut off.
Check the Battery Level symbol on the display.
If it’s low, recharge the batteries.
If you’re using a multi-handset system, check
whether another handset is already on a call.
Make sure you’re holding the earpiece correctly
over your ear.
Adjust the volume using the UP/DOWN key.
“I cannot make a
call”
If the handset display shows KEYS LOCKED, press
and
hold the * button to unlock it before you make
a call.
Only one handset (or the base unit) can be
connected to the outside line at a time.
If another handset is already using the line, you
need to wait until it has finished its call.
