Troubleshooting
No dial tone.
Make sure all plugs are connected properly. Inspect the telephone line cord
connections at the wall jack and telephone. Also inspect the coiled handset
cord connections at both ends.
Unplug the telephone and connect it to another wall jack. If it still does not
work and other telephones in your home are working, the problem is with
this telephone.
Telephone does not ring.
Make sure the RINGER switch is set to LO or HI.
If there are several other telephones on the same line, try disconnecting
some of the other telephones. Having too many telephones connected can
also create problems such as low ringer volume or impaired sound quality
during calls.
Incorrect time and date on incoming calls.
If you subscribe to Calling Number Display service, your service provider
sends the time with the Calling Number Display information. The time and
date should be correct after receiving a call. If the time and date are not
correct after receiving a call, report the problem to your service provider.
If you do not have Calling Number Display service, please set the time and
date manually .
