Troubleshooting
The LCD backlight does not turn on when the handset is placed on the
telephone base or charger to charge.
Clean the charging contacts on the handset, telephone base and/or charger each month with
a pencil eraser or a dry non-abrasive fabric.
Make sure the power adapter and telephone line cord are plugged in properly (page 2).
Unplug the power adapter. Wait for 15 seconds before plugging it back in. Allow up to one
minute for the handset and telephone base to reset.
The telephone does not ring when there is an incoming call.
Make sure the ringer volume of the handset and telephone base are not set to off (page 9
and page 10).
Make sure the telephone line cord and power adapter are plugged in properly (page 2).
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
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 then 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.
