My cordless
handset does
not ring when I
receive a call.
• Make sure that the ringer is not turned off.
Refer to the section(s) on ringer selection
in the manual provided with your TL92278/
TL92328/TL92378 telephone.
• Make sure the telephone line cord is
plugged securely into the telephone base
and the telephone jack. Make sure the
power cord is securely plugged in.
• The cordless handset may be too far from
the telephone base.
• Charge the battery in the cordless handset
for at least 16 hours. For optimum daily
performance, return the cordless handset
to its base when not in use.
• You may have too many extension phones
on your telephone line to allow all of them
to ring simultaneously. Try unplugging
some of the other phones.
• The layout of your home or office might
be limiting the operating range. Try moving
the telephone base to another location,
preferably on an upper floor.
• 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).
• Test a working phone at the phone jack. If
another phone has the same problem, the
problem is the phone jack. Contact your
local telephone company (charges may
apply).
