Out of range OR No power at base appears on my cordless handset.
Ensure that the telephone base is powered up.
Place the cordless handset in the telephone base for one minute to allow
the cordless handset and base to resynchronize.
Move the cordless handset closer to the telephone base. You might have
moved out of range.
Reset the telephone base. Unplug the 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 these types of electronic
devices as possible: television sets, VCRs, or other cordless telephones.
The batteries do not hold a charge.
If the cordless handset is in the telephone base or charger and the charge
light does not come on, refer to The charge light is off (page 87) in this
Troubleshooting guide.
Charge the battery in the cordless handset for at least 16 hours. For
optimum daily performance, return the cordless handset to the telephone
base or charger when not in use.
If the battery is depleted, it may take approximately ten minutes to charge
the handset before it shows Low battery, refer to page 9 for details.
You may need to purchase a new battery. Please refer to Battery
installation and charging (pages 8-9) in this user’s manual.
I get noise, static, or a weak signal even when I’m near the telephone
base.
If you subscribe to high-speed Internet service (digital subscriber line
- DSL) through your telephone lines, you must install a DSL filter between
the telephone line cord and the telephone wall jack (see page 6). The filter
prevents noise and caller ID problems caused by DSL interference. Please
contact your DSL service provider for more information about DSL filters.
You may be able to improve the performance of your cordless phone
by installing your new telephone base as far as possible from any other
existing cordless telephone system that may already be installed.
Other electronic products can cause interference to 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.
