Installing the Phone
Testing the Connection
Pick up the handset from the cradle and press TALK/FLASH. You should hear a dial tone, and the display
should show Talk.
What if I can’t hear a dial tone?
Check the telephone cord connection on the base.
What if the display doesn’t show Talk?
Check the battery pack connection in the handset.
Make sure the battery pack is fully charged.
Make sure the AC adapter cord is securely connected to the
DC IN 6V jack (DC IN 9V jack on the charging cradle) and a
standard power outlet.
Try resetting the handset (see page 51).
Make a quick test call, and then press END to hang up.
What if there is a lot of static?
Check the sources of interference described in Choosing the
Best Location (see page 6): is the base near any of those?
What if the call doesn’t go through?
Try changing the dialing mode (see the next section).
Note: Make sure you can get a dial tone on any accessory handsets that were packaged with your phone.
