TELEPHONE OPERATION (CONT.)
NOTE:
If you experience difficulty with placing or
receiving calls, the lost security code
may be the cause of the problem. When
this occurs, the handset can no longer
communicate with its base. The loss of
the code can occur any of the following
ways: if the battery is drained and needs
recharging; the handset is out of range
of the base unit; the AC adaptor is
disconnected or a power loss has
occurred; or anything that causes
electrical interference, for example
multiple cordless telephones, baby
monitors, televisions, VCR’s etc. Reset
the security code by placing the handset
on the base for 10 seconds. If that does
not work, make sure the AC adaptor is
connected. If necessary, unplug the AC
adaptor from the power source.
Disconnect the battery for 5 seconds and
then reconnect. Place the handset on the
base and then replug the AC adaptor
(see Troubleshooting).

RINGER switch on the side of the
handset to OFF. The handset will no
longer ring when a call is being received.

far away from the base, you will hear
static. If this occurs, move closer to the
base.
Flash

with special services such as Call
Waiting or Three Way Calling (Special
