IN CASE OF DIFFICULTY
* 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.

phones on your telephone line to allow
all of them to ring. Try unplugging some
of the other phones
YOUR CALLER FADES IN AND OUT.
You may be nearly out of range. Move
closer, or relocate the base.
YOU HEAR OTHER CALLS WHILE
USING YOUR PHONE.
* Replace the handset in the base cradle,
wait a few moments and try again.
* Disconnect your base unit from the
telephone jack, and plug in a regular
telephone. If you still hear other calls,
the problem is probably in your wiring or
local service. Call your local telephone
company.
YOU HEAR NOISE IN THE HANDSET,
AND NONE OF THE KEYS OR
BUTTONS WORK.
* Make sure the power cord is plugged in.
* Your base unit and handset may not be
operating on the same channel. Place
the handset in the cradle for a few
moments to reset the channel.
COMMON CURE FOR ELECTRONIC
EQUIPMENT
Electronics, like people, can sometimes get
confused. If the unit does not seem to be
responding normally, then try putting the
handset in the cradle to re-initialize the unit.
If it still does not seem to respond after
doing this a few times, do the following (in
the order listed):
1. Disconnect the power to the base.
2. Disconnect the handset battery.
3. Wait a few minutes.
4. Connect power to the base.
5. Connect the handset battery.
6. Put the handset in the base to re-
initialize.
