Problem Suggestion
My handset does not
ring when I receive
a call.
Make sure you have the ringer activated. Refer to the section(s) on ringer selection in this
user’s manual.
Make sure the telephone line cord is plugged rmly into the telephone base and the telephone
jack. Make sure the power cord is plugged in.
You may be too far from the telephone base.
Charge the battery in the handset for 16 hours. For optimum daily performance, return the
handset to its telephone base when not in use.
You may have too many extension phones on your telephone line to allow all of them to ring.
Try unplugging some of the other phones.
The layout of your home or ofce might be limiting the operating range. Try moving the telephone
base to another location, preferably on an upper oor.
If the other phones in your home are having the issue, the problem is in your wiring or local
service. Contact your local telephone company (charges may apply.)
Test a working phone at the phone jack. If another phone has the same problem, the problem
is the phone jack. Contact your local telephone company (charges may apply.)
