Problem Suggestion
My phone doesn’t
work at all.
• Make sure the power cord is plugged in.
• Make sure the telephone line cord is plugged firmly into the base unit and the telephone wall
jack.
• Disconnect the AC adaptor for a few minutes, and then reconnect it.
• Charge the battery in the handset for 16 hours. For optimum daily performance, return the
handset to its base when not in use.
• Reset the base. Unplug the unit’s electrical power. Wait for 15 seconds then plug it back in.
Allow up to one minute for the handset and base to reset.
• You may need to purchase a new battery, please refer to the battery sections in this user’s
manual.
I cannot get a dial
tone.
• Try all the suggestions above.
• Move the handset closer to the base. You might have moved out of range.
• Your line cord might be malfunctioning. Try installing a new line cord.
• If the previous suggestions don’t work, 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. Contact your local telephone company.
