base and handset, the weather, and the
layout of your home or office.
When the handset is out of range, the
handset displays

no pwr
at base

out of range, it may not ring, or if it
does ring, the call may not connect well
when you press

Move closer to the
telephone base, and then press
to answer the call. If the handset
moves out of range during a telephone
conversation, there may be interference.

telephone base.
