Check for dial tone
Press . If you hear a dial tone, the
installation is successful.
If you do not hear a dial tone
• Make sure the installation
procedures are properly done.
• The handset may take a second or
two to find the telephone base and
produce a dial tone. This is normal.
Wait an extra second before dialing.
• If the previous suggestions do not
work, disconnect the telephone
line cord from your telephone and
connect the telephone line cord to
another telephone.
• If there is no dial tone on that other
telephone either, your telephone
line cord may be defective. Install a
new telephone line cord.
• If changing the telephone line
cord does not help, the wall jack
(or the wiring to this wall jack) may
be defective. Try using a different
wall jack in your home to connect
your VS112, VS112-2, VS112-3, VS112-
4, VS112-17, VS112-27, VS112-37,
VS112-47 telephone, or contact your
telephone service provider (charges
may apply).
