"Out of range or no pwr at base" appears on my cordless
handset
•
Ensure that the telephone base is powered up.
•
Place the cordless handset in the telephone base for one minute to allow
the cordless handset and base to synchronize.
•
Move the cordless handset closer to the telephone base. You might have
moved out of range.

Reset the telephone base. Unplug the electrical power. Wait for 15
seconds then plug it back in. Allow up to one minute for the cordless

Other electronic products such as HAM radios and other DECT phones

I experience poor sound quality when using the speakerphone
•
For increased sound quality while using the speakerphone, place the
handset on a flat surface with the dial pad facing up.
•
When using a speakerphone, controlling background noise in your
environment is essential. While you are listening to your party, press
MUTE/X
to temporarily turn your microphone off. When it is
your turn to speak, remember to press
MUTE/X
again to turn the
microphone on.
•
Excessive background noise will cause a speakerphone to fade in and out.
Try controlling the background noise by turning off any audio devices near
the speakerphone. Also, try to avoid interrupting the person at the other
end of the conversation while they are speaking. If background noise
cannot be controlled, you should terminate speakerphone operation and
return to normal handset mode.
I hear other calls while using my telephone
•
Disconnect the telephone base from the telephone wall jack, and plug in
a different telephone. If you still hear other calls, the problem is probably
in your wiring or telephone service. Call your telephone service provider
(charges may apply).
My cordless handset does not ring when I receive a call
•
Make sure that the ringer is not turned off.
•
Make sure the telephone line cord is plugged securely into the telephone
base and the telephone wall jack. Make sure the power cord is securely
plugged in.
•
The cordless handset may be too far from the telephone base.
•
Charge the battery in the cordless handset for at least 16 hours. For
optimum daily performance, return the cordless handset to the telephone
base or charger when not in use.
•
You may have too many extension telephones on your telephone line to
allow all of them to ring simultaneously. Try unplugging one telephone at a
time until the telephone starts ringing.
•
The layout of your home or office might be limiting the operating range.
Try moving the telephone base to another location, preferably on an
upper floor.
•
If the other telephones in your home are having the same problem, the
problem is in your wiring or telephone service. Contact your telephone
service provider (charges may apply).
•
Test a working telephone at the telephone wall jack. If another telephone
has the same problem, the problem is the telephone wall jack. Contact
your telephone service provider (charges may apply).
•
Other electronic products such as HAM radios and other DECT phones
can cause interference with your cordless telephone. Try installing your
telephone as far away as possible from these types of electronic devices.
•
Completely remove then replace the battery. Place the cordless handset
in the telephone base. Wait for the cordless handset to reestablish its
connection with the telephone base. Allow up to one minute for this to
take place.
