Hints and Tips
Hints and Tips
ALWAYS check first that:
•
You have followed all the steps listed in the user manual to install and set up your telephone.
•
All connectors are firmly inserted in their sockets.
•
Mains power to the base unit and charging cradle are switched on at the mains socket.
•
The handset’s batteries are correctly and securely installed and are not run down.
Everyday use
I cannot make or answer calls
•
If the handset’s display is blank, it may have been switched off. Put the handset back on the
base unit or charging cradle to turn it back on.
•
Check that the base unit’s mains power adapter is plugged in and the power is switched on.
•
The base unit needs mains power for normal operation of the phone. Not just for charging
the batteries.
•
Make sure you are using the telephone line cable supplied with your phone. Other
telephone line cables might not work. Move the handset closer to the base unit.
•
Check the battery level symbol on the display. If it is low, replace the handset on the base
unit or charging cradle to recharge the batteries.
•
Switch off the power at the mains socket, wait for a short time and then switch back on. This
may solve the problem.
I cannot make a call
•
If the handset display shows KEYS LOCKED, press and hold the / button to unlock it before
you make a call.
•
Only one handset (or the base unit) can be connected to the outside line at a time. If another
handset is already using the line, you need to wait until it has finished its call.
When I press on the keys, nothing happens
Make sure the batteries are fitted in your handset. If the Battery Level symbol on the display
shows ‘low’, put your handset back on the base unit or charging cradle to charge.
