Troubleshooting
There is no dial tone.
• Try all the suggestions above.
• Move the cordless handset closer to the console or deskset. You
may have moved out of range.
• If the previous suggestions do not work, disconnect the
telephone line from the console and connect it to a different
phone. If there is no dial tone on that phone either, the problem
is in your wiring or telephone service. Contact your telephone
service provider.
• Your line cord may be defective. Try installing a new line cord.
I cannot dial out.
• Try all the suggestions above.
• Make sure you have a dial tone before dialing. The cordless
handset may take a second or two to find the console or
deskset and produce a dial tone. This is normal. Wait an extra
second before dialing.
• Eliminate any background noise. Noise from a television,
radio or other appliances may cause the phone to not dial
out properly. If you cannot eliminate the background noise,
try muting the cordless handset before dialing, or dialing from
another room with less background noise.
• If other phones in your home are having the same problem,
contact your telephone service provider (charges may apply).
I cannot switch a call from the cordless handset to
the console or deskset.
• Make sure the system has only one line operating. You cannot
switch the call from the cordless handset to the console or
deskset if there is more than one telephone line in operation.
