Troubleshooting
When you have this
problem...
Try...
I can’t get two cordless
handsets to talk to an
outside caller.
Checking to see that there are not two handsets already using the conference
feature (see page 38).
Making sure another station is not in Privacy Mode (see page 40).
Making sure both handsets are registered to and currently connected to the same
base (see pages 14 and 15).

Checking to see if you are using the correct PIN number (see page 49).
Checking to see if the touch-tone phone you’re using can transmit the tone for at
least two seconds. If it cannot, try using a different touch-tone phone.
