In Case Of Difficulty
You hear other calls while using your phone:
Disconnect your Base Unit from the telephone jack, and plug in a regular
telephone. If you still hear other calls, the problem is probably in your wiring
or local service. Call your local telephone company.
You hear noise in the Handset, and none of the keys or buttons work:
Make sure the power cord is plugged in.
Common cure for electronic equipment:
If the unit does not seem to be responding normally, then try putting the Handset
in the cradle. If it does not seem to respond, do the following (in the order listed):
1. Disconnect the power to the Base.
2. Disconnect the Handset battery cells and spare battery compartment's battery
cells, if applicable.
3. Wait a few minutes.
4. Connect power to the Base.
5. Re-install the battery cells.
6. Wait for the Handset to re-establish its link with the Base. To be safe, allow
up to one minute for this to take place.
Your answering system is not recording messages:
Make sure system is turned ON (the ON/OFF key is illuminated).
Make sure AnnounceOnly feature is set to OFF.
You cannot hear recorded messages:
Using the Base volume control, raise the volume to a comfortable listening
level.
