Can the DS6621 help the poor cell phone reception in
my house?
If your cell phone has poor reception in your home, the DS6621 cannot improve
the reception. However, if there is a location in your house with better reception,
you can leave your cell phone at that location while using the DS6621 cell line. In
order for this to work, the telephone base must be within 30 feet of the cell phone.
The listening volume of my cell call is too loud or quiet.
During a cell call, if the listening volume is to too loud or quiet, try changing the
volume on your cell phone. On some cell phones, changing the volume on the
cell phone effects your cell call volume on the DS6621 handset.
My telephone doesn’t work at all.
Make sure the power cord is securely plugged in.
Make sure you plug the battery connector securely into the cordless handset.
Make sure you plug the telephone line cord securely and firmly into the telephone
base and the telephone 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 cordless handset for at least 12 hours. For optimum
daily performance, return the cordless handset to the handset charger when not
in use.
If the battery is completely depleted, charge the handset for at least 30 minutes
before use (page 4).
Reset the telephone base. Unplug the electrical power. Wait for approximately
15 seconds, and then plug it back in. Allow up to one minute for the cordless
handset and telephone base to reset.
You may need to purchase a new battery. Refer to Handset battery installation
(page 3) and Handset battery charging (page 4).
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.
There is no dial tone.
Try all the suggestions above.
Move the cordless handset closer to the telephone base. You may have moved
out of range.
