I cannot dial out.
Try all the above suggestions.
Make sure there is a dial tone before dialing. It is normal if the handset takes a second or
two to synchronize with the telephone base before producing a dial tone. Wait an extra
second before dialing.
If other telephones in your home are having the same problem, the problem is in the
wiring or local telephone service. Contact your telephone service provider (charges
may apply).
Eliminate any background noise. Mute the cordless handset before dialing, or dial from
another room in your home with less background noise.
Low battery shows on the handset screen.
Place the handset in the telephone base or charger for recharging.
Remove and install the battery again and use it until fully depleted, then charge the
handset in the telephone base or charger for up to 16 hours.
If the above measures do not correct the problem, replace the battery.
The telephone does not ring when there is an incoming call.
Make sure the handset ringer volume is not set to off.
Make sure the telephone line cord and power adapter are plugged in properly.
The handset may be too far from the telephone base. Move it closer to the
telephone base.
There may be too many extension phones on the telephone line to allow all of them to
ring simultaneously. Unplug some of them.
If other telephones in your home are having the same problem, the problem is in the
wiring or local telephone service. Contact your telephone service provider (charges
may apply).
Other electronic products such as HAM radios and other DECT phones can cause
interference with your cordless phone. Try installing your phone as far away as possible
from these types of electronic devices.
Test a working telephone at the telephone wall jack. If another telephone has the same
problem, the problem is in the telephone wall jack. Contact your telephone service
provider (charges may apply).
The telephone line cord may be defective. Install a new telephone line cord.
Remove and install the battery again and place the
handset in the telephone base.
Wait for the handset to synchronize with the telephone base. Allow up to one minute for
this to take place.
My handset beeps and is not performing normally.
Make sure the power cord is securely plugged into the telephone base. Plug the
telephone base into a different working electrical outlet not controlled by a wall switch.
Move the handset closer to the telephone base. It may be out of range.
Reset the telephone base by unplugging the electrical power to the base. Wait for
15 seconds and plug it back in again. Allow up to one minute for the cordless handset
and the telephone base to synchronize.
Other electronic products such as HAM radios and other DECT phones can cause
interference with your cordless phone. Try installing your phone as far away as possible
from these types of electronic devices.
There is interference during a telephone conversation. My calls fade out
when I am using the cordless handset.
The handset may be out of range. Move it closer to the telephone base.
If you subscribe to high-speed Internet service (DSL - digital subscriber line) through
your telephone line, you must install a DSL filter between the telephone line cord and
the telephone wall jack. The filter prevents noise and caller ID problems caused by DSL
interference. Contact your DSL service provider for more information about DSL filters.
Appliances or other cordless telephones plugged into the same circuit as the
telephone base can cause interference. Try moving the appliance or telephone base to
another outlet.
Other electronic products such as HAM radios and other DECT phones can cause
interference with your cordless phone. Try installing your phone as far away as possible
from these types of electronic devices.
If your telephone is plugged in with a modem or a surge protector, plug the telephone
(or modem/surge protector) into a different location. If this doesn’t solve the problem,
relocate your telephone or modem farther apart from each other, or use a different
surge protector.
The location of your telephone base can impact the performance of your cordless
phone. For better reception, install the telephone base in a centralized location within
your home or office, away from walls or other obstructions. In many environments,
elevating the telephone base improves overall performance.
Disconnect the telephone base from the telephone wall jack and plug in a corded
telephone. If calls are still not clear, the problem is probably in the wiring or local
telephone service. Contact your telephone service provider (charges may apply).
If other telephones in your home are having the same problem, the problem is in the
wiring or local telephone service. Contact your telephone service provider (charges
may apply).
I hear other calls when using the telephone.
Disconnect the telephone base from the telephone wall jack. Plug in a different
telephone. If you still hear other calls, the problem is probably in the wiring or local
telephone service. Contact your telephone service provider.
I hear noise on the cordless handset and the keys do not work.
Make sure the telephone line cord is plugged in securely.
