I cannot hear
the dial tone.
Disconnect the telephone
line cord from your
telephone and connect it to
another telephone. If there
is no dial tone on that other
telephone either, then the

new telephone line cord.
If changing the telephone

the wall jack (or the wiring

defective. Contact your
telephone service provider.

an extra second before

General product care
Taking care of your telephone
Your cordless telephone contains
sophisticated electronic parts, so it must
be treated with care.
Avoid rough treatment
Place the handset down gently. Save the
original packing materials to protect your
telephone if you ever need to ship it.
Avoid water
Your telephone can be damaged if it gets
wet. Do not use the handset outdoors
in the rain, or handle it with wet hands.
Do not install the telephone base near a
sink, bathtub or shower.
Electrical storms
Electrical storms can sometimes cause
power surges harmful to electronic
equipment. For your own safety, take
caution when using electrical appliances
during storms.
Cleaning your telephone
Your telephone has a durable plastic
casing that should retain its luster for
many years. Clean it only with a dry non-
abrasive cloth. Do not use dampened
cloth or cleaning solvents of any kind.
