If the above measures do not correct the problem, the battery pack may
need to be replaced.
The battery

in the handset
or the handset
battery does not

Make sure the handset is placed in the charger correctly. The CHARGE

If the cordless handset is in the charger or in the telephone base but

It may be necessary to purchase a new battery. Please refer to the
battery section of this user’s manual.

The telephone
does not ring
when there is an
incoming call.
Make sure the ringer is on. (See page 36 for the handset and page 47 for
telephone base ringer volume).
Make sure the telephone line cord and power adapter are plugged in
properly (page 9).
The cordless 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. Try unplugging 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 the local telephone
company (charges may apply).
Other electronic products can cause interference to your cordless
telephone. Try installing your telephone as far away as possible from the
following electronic devices: wireless routers, radios, radio towers, pager
towers, intercoms, room monitors, televisions, VCRs, personal computers,
kitchen appliances, and other cordless telephones.
Test a working telephone at the telephone jack. If another telephone has
the same problem, the problem is in the telephone jack. Contact your
local telephone company (charges may apply).
The telephone line cord might be malfunctioning. Try installing a new
telephone line cord.
Re-install the battery pack and place the cordless handset in the
telephone base.
Wait for the cordless handset to synchronize with the telephone base. To
be safe, allow up to one minute for this to take place.
