If the phone doesn’t work at all, check these items first:
•
Make sure the AC adapter is plugged into an outlet not controlled

You might be out of range. Move closer to the base and try again.
•
If moving closer to the base doesn’t help, try following the directions
above for re-initializing the handset and base.
If the phone does not ring when you receive a call:
•
Make sure the handset ringer is on.
•
Make sure the telephone line cord is connected firmly to the base
and the telephone jack.

You might have too many extension phones on your telephone line to
allow all of them to ring. Try unplugging some of them.
