“When I key in a number ,
it appears on the
display, but I cannot
make an outside call”
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 .
“The phone does not
ring”
Check that the base unit‟s main power adapter
is plugged in and power is switched on.
The base unit needs main power for normal
operation of the phone – not just for charging
the batteries.
Make sure you are using the telephone line cable
that was supplied with your package.
“My call was cut off
when I went out of
range. Now I can‟t use
my handset . ”
Move the handset closer to the base unit before
you try again to make a call.
“There is interference
and noise on the line”
Move the handset closer to the base unit , or to a
different position.
Try moving the base unit so that it‟s not near
other electrical equipment , such as a television
or a computer .
You‟ll get the best sound if you place the base
unit as high as possible. For example, in a tw o-
story house, the first-floor landing is an ideal
place.
“I hear „beeps‟ from my
handset while I‟m on a
call”
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.
