Troubleshooting

Problem

Suggestion

I hear other calls when

using the telephone.

Disconnect the telephone base from the telephone wall jack. Plug in a different telephone. If

you still hear other calls, the problem is probably in the wiring or local service.

Call your local

telephone company.

��

I hear noise in the

cordless handset, and

none of the keys or

buttons work.

Make sure the telephone line cord is plugged in securely.
Try installing a different line cord.

My caller ID features are

not working properly.

Caller ID is a subscription service. You must subscribe to this service from your local telephone

company for this feature to work on your telephone.
The caller may not be calling from an area which supports caller ID.
Both you and the caller’s telephone companies must use equipment which are compatible

with caller ID service.
If you subscribe to high-speed Internet service (Digital Subscriber Line - DSL) through your

telephone lines, you must have a DSL filter between the telephone base and the telephone wall

jack. The filter will prevent noise and caller ID problems caused by DSL interference. Please

contact your DSL service provider for more information about DSL filters.

or the system does

Make sure you subscribe to caller ID with call waiting features services provided by the local

telephone company.
The caller may not be calling from an area which supports caller ID.
Both you and the caller’s telephone companies must use equipment which are compatible

with caller ID service.
