If you have difficulty operating your
phone, the suggestions below should
solve the problem. If you still have
difficulty after trying these suggestions,
call VTECH Communications at 1-800-
595-9511. In Canada, call VTECH
Electronics at 604-273-5131.
THE PHONE DOESN’T WORK AT
ALL.
• Make sure the power cord is
plugged in.
• Make sure the telephone line cord
is plugged firmly into the base unit
and the telephone wall jack.
• Make sure the batteries are properly
charged. If the MUTE/LO BATT
LED is flashing, the battery pack
needs charging.
NO DIAL TONE.
First check all the suggestions above.
If you still don’t hear a dial tone,
disconnect the base unit from the
telephone jack and connect a different
phone. If there is no dial tone on that
phone either, the problem is in your
wiring or local service. Call your local
telephone company.
IN CASE OF DIFFICULTY
YOU GET NOISE, STATIC, OR A
WEAK SIGNAL EVEN WHEN YOU’RE
NEAR THE BASE UNIT.
Household appliances plugged into the
same circuit as the base unit can
sometimes cause interference. Try
moving the appliance or the base unit
to another outlet.
YOU GET NOISE, STATIC, OR A
WEAK SIGNAL WHEN YOU’RE
AWAY FROM THE BASE UNIT.
• You may be out of range. Either
move close to the base, or relocate
the base unit.
• The layout of your home may be
limiting the range. Try moving the
base unit to another position.
THE HANDSET DOES NOT RING
WHEN YOU RECEIVE A CALL.
Make sure you have the handset ringer
activated. To set the ringer see
PROGRAMMING THE RINGER on
page 19.
• Make sure the telephone line cord
is plugged firmly into the base unit
and the telephone jack. Make sure
the power cord is plugged in.
• You may be too far from the base
unit.
• 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.
