ADDITIONAL INFO
Problem Suggestion
I cannot dial out. • Make sure you have a dial tone before dialing. The handset may take a second or two to nd the
base and produce a dial tone. This is normal. Wait an extra second before dialing.
• Make sure your phone is set to the correct dial mode for the type of service that you have (pulse
or touchtone). Refer to the Installation section of this user’s manual to set the dial mode.
• 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.)
• Eliminate any background noise. Noise from a television, radio or other appliance may cause the
phone to not dial out properly. If you cannot eliminate the background noise, rst try muting the
handset before dialing, or dialing from another room in your home with less background noise.
My handset beeps
four times and isn’t
performing normally.
• Make sure the power cord is securely plugged into the base. Plug the unit into a different, working
outlet not controlled by a wall switch.
• Move the handset closer to the base. You might have moved out of range.
• Reset the base. Unplug the unit’s electrical power. Wait for 15 seconds then plug it back in. Allow
up to one minute for the handset and base to reset.
• Other electronic products can cause interference with your cordless phone. Try installing your
phone as far away from these types of electronic devices as possible: wireless routers, radios, radio
towers, pager towers, cell phones, intercoms, room monitors, televisions, personal computers,
kitchen appliances and other cordless phones.
