IN CASE OF DIFFICULTY
THE PHONE DOESN'T WORK AT ALL.
• Make sure the Power Cord is pugged in.
•
Make sure the telephone line cords are plugged firmly into the base unit and the
telephone wall jack.
•
Make sure the batteries are properly charged. If the 'LOW BATTERY' message is
shown, the battery pack needs charging.
NO DIAL TONE.
•
First check all the suggestions above.
•
If you still don't hear a dial tone, disconnect the base unit from the telephone jack and
connect a different phone. If there is no dial tone on that phone either, the problem
is in your wiring or local service. Call your local telephone company.
YOU GET NOISE, STATIC, OR A WEAK SIGNAL EVEN WHEN YOU'RE NEAR
THE BASE UNIT.
•
Household appliances plugged into the same circuit as the base unit can sometimes
cause interference. Try moving the appliance or the base unit to another outlet.
YOU GET NOISE, STATIC, OR A WEAK SIGNAL WHEN YOU'RE AWAY FROM
THE BASE UNIT.
•
You may be out of range. Either move close to the base, or relocate the base unit.
•
The layout of your home may be limiting the range. Try moving the base unit to another
position.
THE HANDSET DOES NOT RING WHEN YOU RECEIVE A CALL.
•
Make sure you have the handset ringer activated. To set the ringer, see "SETTING
THE HANDSET RINGER".
•
Make sure the telephone line cord is plugged firmly into the base unit and the telephone
jack. Make sure the power cord is plugged in.
•
You may be too far from the base unit.
•
You may have too many extension phones on your telephone line to allow all of them
to ring. Try unplugging some of the other phones.
YOU HEAR OTHER CALLS WHILE USING YOUR PHONE.
•
Disconnect your base unit from the telephone jack, and plug in a regular telephone.
If you still hear other calls, the problem is probably in your wiring or local service. Call
your local telephone company.
