Troubleshooting

My cordless
handset isn’t
performing
normally.

Make sure you plug the power cord securely into the
telephone base. Plug the power adapter into a different,
working electrical outlet without a wall switch.
Move the cordless handset closer to the telephone
base. You might have moved out of range.
Reset the telephone base. Unplug the electrical power.
Wait for 15 seconds then plug it back in. Allow up to
one minute for the cordless handset and telephone
base to reset.
Other electronic products can cause interference to
your cordless phone. Try installing your phone as far
away from these types of electronic devices as possible:
television sets, VCRs, or other cordless telephones.

Eliminate any background noise. Noise from a
television, radio or other appliances might cause the
phone to not dial out properly. If you cannot eliminate
the background noise, first try muting the cordless
handset before dialing, or dialing from another room
with less background noise.
If the other phones in your home are having the same
problem, contact your telephone service provider
(charges might apply).

the charger.

Unplug the battery from the handset and plug it back in
(page 8). The screen should now show
