Installing the Phone
Testing the Connection
Pick up the handset from the base and press [ /flash]. You should hear a dial tone, and the display should
show TALK.
What if I can’t hear a dial tone?
Check the telephone cord connection on the base.
What if the display doesn’t show TALK?
Check the battery pack connection in the handset. •
Make sure the battery pack is fully charged. •
Make sure the AC adapter cord is securely connected •
to the DC IN 9V jack and a standard power outlet.
Try resetting the handset (see page 55). •
Make a quick test call, and then press [ ] to hang up.
What if there is a lot of static?
Check the sources of interference described in Choosing the
Best Location (see page 5): is the base near any of those?
Note: Make sure you can get a dial tone on any accessory handsets
that were packaged with your phone.
