Troubleshooting
Make sure the power adapter and telephone line cord are plugged in correctly
and securely.
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.
There is no dial tone.
First, try all the above suggestions.
Move the handset closer to the telephone base. It may be out of range.
The telephone line cord may be malfunctioning. Install a new telephone line cord.
Disconnect the telephone base from the telephone wall jack and connect a different
telephone. If there is no dial tone on this telephone either, the problem is in your
wiring or local service. Contact your telephone service provider.
The telephone does not ring when there is an incoming call.
Make sure the handset ringer volume is not set to the lowest level (page 8).
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 the other telephones in your home are having the same problem, the problem is
in the wiring or local service. Contact your telephone service provider (charges
may apply).
Other electronic products can cause interference to your cordless telephone. Install your
telephone as far away as possible from electronic devices such as: wireless routers,
radios, cellular telephones, digital telephones, intercoms, room monitors, televisions,
VCRs, personal computers, kitchen appliances, and other cordless telephones.
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 malfunctioning. Install a new telephone line cord.
Reinstall the battery and place the handset in the telephone base or charger.
Wait for the handset to synchronize with the telephone base. Allow up to one minute
for this to take place.
I cannot dial out.
First, 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 before producing a dial tone. Wait an extra
second before dialing.
If the other telephones in your home are having the same problem, the problem is
in the wiring or local 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.
