Make sure the battery is installed and charged correctly. For optimum daily performance,
return the handset to the telephone base or charger after use.
Make sure the power adapter is securely plugged into an outlet not controlled by a wall switch.
Make sure the telephone line cord is plugged firmly into the telephone base and the wall jack.
Unplug the electrical power to the telephone base. Wait for approximately
15 seconds, and then plug it back in. Allow up to one minute for the cordless handset and
telephone base to synchronize.
Charge the battery in the handset for up to 12 hours.
If the battery is completely depleted, charge the handset for at least 30 minutes before use.
Remove the battery and then install it again. If that still does not work, it may be necessary
to purchase a new battery.
Disconnect the telephone base from the telephone wall jack and plug in a working telephone.
If the other telephone does not work, the problem is probably in the wiring or telephone
service. Contact your telephone service provider.
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.
Eliminate any background noise. Mute
the cordless handset before dialing, or dial from
another room in your home with less background noise.
If you have changed your telephone service to digital service from a cable company or a VoIP
service provider, the telephone line may need to be rewired to allow all existing telephone jacks
to work. Contact your service provider for more information.

Make sure the answering system is on. When the answering system is on, the handset shows
"/40/ and the "/40/ light on the telephone base is on.
If toll saver is selected, the number of rings changes to two when there are new messages.
If the memory is full or the answering system is off, the answering system answers after 10
rings. In some cases, the answering system is affected by the ringing system used by the
telephone service provider.
Make sure the memory of the answering system is not full. When the answering machine
memory is full, it does not record new messages until some old messages are deleted.
If you subscribe to voicemail service, change the number of rings so that your answering
system answers before your voicemail answers. To determine how many rings activate your
voicemail, contact your telephone service provider.
If there is a fax machine connected to the same telephone line, try disconnecting the fax
machine. If that solves the problem, consult your fax machine documentation for information
on compatibility with answering systems.

If a caller leaves a very long message, part of it may be lost when the answering system
disconnects the call after the preset recording time.

system stops recording and disconnects the call.
If the caller’s voice is very soft, the answering system may stop recording and disconnect the call.
