If you have difficulty operating this phone, try the suggestions
below. If you still have trouble, call 1 800 722-9125.
Phone Does Not Work At All
•
Make sure the POWER ON/OFF switch is set to ON.
•
Make sure the power cord is plugged into the base and
an electrical outlet.
•
Make sure the telephone line cord is plugged firmly into
the base unit and the telephone wall jack.
•
If the phone does not beep when you press
P
, the
batteries might need recharging.
•
If the handset LOW BATT light flashes, the batteries need
recharging.
•
Make sure the battery pack is installed correctly.
•
If the battery pack will not charge, replace it with
replacement battery 3094.
•
Place the handset in the base for 5 seconds to reset the
security code.
•
Unplug the base from the electrical outlet, wait 10
seconds, then plug the base back in.
No Dial Tone
Check all the previous suggestions. If you still do not hear a dial
tone, disconnect the phone and try another phone in the same wall
jack. If there is no dial tone on that phone either, the problem is
probably in your wiring or local service. Call your local
telephone service company.
Noise or Interference
•
You may be out of range. Move closer to the base.
•
Household appliances plugged into the same circuit as
the base can sometimes cause interference. Try moving
the appliance or the base to another outlet.
•
The layout of your home or office might be limiting the
operating range. Try moving the base to another
location, preferably on an upper floor.
Error Tone
If you hear an error tone, and do not get a dial tone when you
press
P
, try again.

Phone Does Not Ring
•
Make sure the Handset and Base Ringers are set to ON
and are at an audible level.
•
Make sure the telephone line cord is connected firmly to
the base and the telephone wall jack. Make sure the power
cord is plugged into an outlet not controlled by a wall switch.
•
You might be too far from the base. Move closer.
•
You might have too many extension phones on your
telephone line to allow all of them to ring. Try
unplugging some of the other phones.
You Hear Other Calls
Disconnect the base from the telephone wall jack and plug in a
corded telephone. If you still hear other calls, the problem is prob-
ably in your wiring or local service. Call your local telephone
service company.
Telephone Misdials
•
It might take a few seconds for your handset to find a
good connection to the phone system.
•
If you have dial pulse (rotary) service, make sure the Dial
Mode switch is set to PULSE.
•
If you have touch tone service and you hear strange clicks
while you are dialing, you’ll need to set the Dial Mode
switch to TONE.
Noise in the Handset and Buttons Don’t Work
The base unit and handset might not be set to the same security
code. Place the handset in the base for at least 5 seconds to reset
the security code.
LOW BATT Light is On or Flashing
•
Place the handset in the base, make sure the
CHARGING light goes on, and charge the handset
battery pack for at lease 14 hours.
•
If the LOW BATT light is flashing quickly, you are out
of range of the base. Move closer.
