The charge
light is off.
• Make sure the power and line cords are
plugged in correctly and securely.
• 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
telephone base to reset.
Other electronic products can cause
interference with your cordless phone. Try
installing your phone as far away from the
following electronic devices as possible:
television sets, VCRs, or other cordless
telephones.
• Do not install this phone near a microwave
oven or on the same electrical outlet. You
may experience decreased performance while
the microwave oven is operating.
• If your phone is plugged in with a modem or
surge protector, plug the phone (or modem/
surge protector) into a different location.
If this doesn’t solve the problem, re-locate
your phone or modem farther apart from one
another, or use a different surge protector.
• Relocate your telephone base to a higher
location. The phone will have better
reception when not installed in a low area.
• 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).
