devices such as: wireless routers, radios, cellular telephones, digital
telephones, intercoms, room monitors, televisions, VCRs, personal
computers, kitchen appliances, and other cordless telephones.
• Test a working telephone at the telephone wall jack. If another
telephone has the same problem, the problem is in the telephone wall
jack. Contact your local telephone company (charges might apply).
• The telephone line cord might be malfunctioning. Install a new
telephone line cord.
• Re-install the battery and place the handset in the telephone base or
charger.
• Wait for the handset to synchronize with the telephone base. Allow up
to one minute for this to take place.
I cannot dial out.
• First, try all the above suggestions.
• Make sure there is a dial tone before dialing. It is normal if the handset
takes a second or two to synchronize with the telephone before
producing a dial tone. Wait an extra second before dialing.
• If the other telephones in your home are having the same problem, the
problem is in the wiring or local service. Contact your local telephone
company (charges might apply).
• Eliminate any background noise. Mute the cordless handset before
dialing, or dial from another room in your home with less background
noise.
My handset beeps and is not performing normally.
• Make sure the power cord is securely plugged into the telephone base.
Plug the telephone base into a different working electrical outlet not
controlled by a wall switch.
• Move the handset closer to the telephone base. It might be out of
range.
• Reset the telephone base by unplugging the electrical power to the
base. Wait for 15 seconds and plug it back in again. Allow up to one
minute for the cordless handset and the telephone base to synchronize.
• Other electronic products can cause interference to your cordless
telephone. Install your telephone as far away from these electronic
devices as possible: wireless routers, radios, radio towers, pager towers,
cellular telephones, intercoms, room monitors, televisions, personal
computers, kitchen appliances and other cordless telephones.
