Troubleshooting
My cordless
handset isn’t
performing nor-
mally
• Make sure the power cord is securely plugged into the
telephone base. Plug the unit into a different, working
electrical outlet not controlled by a wall switch.
• Move the cordless handset closer to the telephone base.
You might have moved out of range.
• Reset the telephone base. Unplug the unit’s electrical
power. Wait for 15 seconds then plug it back in. Allow
up to one minute for the cordless handset and tele-
phone base to reset.
• Other electronic products can cause interference to
your cordless phone. Try installing your phone
as far away from these types of electronic devices
as possible: television sets, VCRs, or other cordlesstelevision sets, VCRs, or other cordless
telephones.
• Eliminate any background noise. Noise from a television,
radio or other appliances may cause the phone to not
dial out properly. If you cannot eliminate the background
noise, first try muting the cordless handset before dial-
ing, or dialing from another room in your home with less
background noise.
• If the other phones in your home are having the same
problem, the problem is in your wiring or local service.
Contact your local telephone company (charges may
apply).
