My telephone does not work at all.
Make sure the battery is installed and charged correctly (pages 3-4). For optimum
daily performance, return the handset to the telephone base or charger after use.
Make sure the power adapter is securely plugged into an outlet not controlled by a
wall switch.
Make sure the telephone line cord is plugged rmly into the telephone base and the
telephone wall jack.
Unplug the electrical power to the telephone base. Wait for approximately 15
seconds, then plug it back in. Allow up to one minute for the cordless handset and
telephone base to synchronize.
Charge the battery in the handset for up to 16 hours.
If the battery is completely depleted, it can take up to 10 minutes to charge the
handset before Low battery appears on the screen (page 4).
Remove and reinsert the battery. If that still does not work, it might be necessary to
purchase a new battery.
Disconnect the telephone base from the telephone wall jack and plug in a working
telephone. If the other telephone does not work, the problem is probably in the
wiring or telephone service. Call your telephone service provider.
There is no dial tone.
First, try all the above suggestions.
Move the handset closer to the telephone base. It might be out of range.
The telephone line cord might be malfunctioning. Install a new telephone line cord.
Disconnect the telephone base from the telephone wall jack and connect a different
telephone. If there is no dial tone on this telephone either, the problem is in your
wiring or telephone service. Contact your telephone service provider.
I cannot dial out.
First, try all the above suggestions.
Make sure there is a dial tone before dialing. It is normal if the handset takes a
second or two to synchronize with the telephone before producing a dial tone. Wait
an extra second before dialing.
If the other telephones in your home are having the same problem, the problem is in
the wiring or telephone service. Contact your telephone service provider.
Eliminate any background noise. Mute the cordless handset before dialing, or dial
from another room in your home with less background noise.
