In Canada, go to www.vtechcanada.com or dial 1 (800) 267-7377. My telephone does not work at all. • Make sure the battery is installed and charged correctly (pages 3-4). For optimum daily performance, return the handset to the telephone base or charger after use.
Appendix Troubleshooting Low battery shows on screen. • Place the handset in the telephone base or charger for recharging. • Remove and install the battery again and use it until fully depleted, then recharge the handset in the telephone base or charger for up to 16 hours. • If the above measures do not correct the problem, replace the battery. The battery does not charge in the handset or the handset battery does not accept charge.
Appendix Troubleshooting • Install the battery again 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. 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.
Appendix Troubleshooting 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 telephone service. Call your telephone service provider. I hear noise on the cordless handset and the keys do not work. • Make sure the telephone line cord is plugged in securely. Registration failed appears on the handset. • Only one handset can be registered at a time.
Appendix Troubleshooting Caller ID entries do not match the numbers I need to dial. • Caller ID service delivers 10 digits (the area code plus the seven-digits number). If you need to dial something other 10 digits, see page 39 for instructions on changing the number. • If you dial seven digits for local calls, you may want to use the home area code feature (page 14). 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.
Appendix Troubleshooting • In some cases, the answering system is affected by the ringing system used by your telephone service provider. • If you subscribe to voicemail service, change the number of rings so that your answering system answers before your voicemail answers (page 42). To determine how many rings activate your voicemail, please contact your telephone service provider. • If there is a fax machine connected to the same telephone line, try disconnecting the fax machine.
Appendix Troubleshooting • Make sure you are calling from a touch-tone telephone. When dialing a number, there should be tones. If there are clicks, then it is not a touch-tone telephone and cannot activate the answering system. • The answering system may not detect the remote access code when your announcement is playing. Wait until the announcement is over before entering the code. • There may be interference on the telephone line you are using. Press the dial pad keys firmly when dialing.
