trying this a few times, do the following
(in the order listed):
1. Disconnect the power to the base.
2. Disconnect (remove) the handset
battery pack.
3.
Remove the base unit battery
pack, where applicable.
4.
Wait a few minutes.
5. Connect power to the base.
6.
Install the handset battery pack.
7.
Install the base unit battery pack,
where applicable.
8. Place the handset in the base unit
cradle. If the handset has not been
recently charged, allow 8 hours
before use.
