Troubleshooting

OUT OF RANGE OR NO PWR AT BASE shows in the handset screen.

The handset may be out of range. Move it closer to the telephone base.
Make sure the power cord is securely plugged into the telephone base. Use a working

electrical outlet not controlled by a wall switch.
Reset your telephone by unplugging the power adapter from the telephone base.

Disconnect the battery from the cordless handset. Wait for 15 seconds, then plug in the

power adapter and reinstall the battery. Place the handset in the telephone base and

allow up to one minute for the handset and telephone base to synchronize.
Other electronic products such as HAM radios and other DECT phones can cause

interference with your cordless phone. Try installing your phone as far away as possible

from these types of electronic devices.

NEW VOICEMAIL and

show on the display and I don’t know why.

Your telephone has voicemail indication that is separate from the built-in answering
system. If

NEW VOICEMAIL

and

appear on the display, then your telephone has

received a signal from your telephone service provider that you have a voicemail

message waiting for you to retrieve from your telephone service provider. Contact your

telephone service provider for more information on how to access your voicemail.

I cannot retrieve voicemail messages.

Your telephone has both a built-in answering system and voicemail indication. They are

independent features and each alerts you to new messages differently (see

Answering

system new message indication on page 40). If you subscribe to voicemail service

from your telephone service provider (charges may apply), contact your telephone

service provider for more information on how to access your voicemail.

The answering system does not answer after correct number of rings.

Make sure the answering system is on. When the answering system is on,

ANS ON

should show on the handset and the

/ANSWER ON/OFF

light is lit on the telephone base

(see

Answer on/off on page 35).

If toll saver is selected, the number of rings changes to two when there are new

messages (see

Number of rings on page 37).

If the memory is full or the answering system is off, the answering system answers after

10 rings. In some cases, the answering system is affected by the ringing system used

by the telephone service provider.
If you subscribe to voicemail service, change the number of rings so that your

answering system answers before your voicemail answers (see

Answering system

new message indication on page 40). To get help with your voicemail settings, contact

your telephone service provider.
