{REDIAL} or {PAUSE} on the
base unit does not function
properly.

function properly.
Cause & Solution
L You must subscribe to Caller ID service. Once you receive caller information
after subscribing to Caller ID service, this message will not be displayed.
Cause & Solution
L If you used a splitter/coupler to connect the unit, remove the splitter/coupler
and connect the unit to the wall jack directly. If the unit operates properly,
check the splitter/coupler.
L Disconnect the unit from the telephone line and connect a known working
telephone. If the working telephone operates properly, contact our service
personnel to have the unit repaired. If the working telephone does not
operate properly, contact your telephone company.
L The power cord or telephone line cord is not connected. Check the
connections.
L If you have connected the fax machine through a computer modem,
connect the fax machine directly to a telephone line jack.
L Check the connections (page 14).
L Make sure that the cordless handset's battery is installed correctly (page
13) and fully charge it (page 15).
L The ringer volume is turned OFF. Adjust it (page 16).
L You dialled a call restricted number. Remove the number from the call
restricted list (page 54).
L The dialling mode setting may be wrong. Change the setting (feature #13 on
page 46).
Cause & Solution
L You forced the recording paper into the paper tray too strongly. Remove all
of the installed paper, and re-install it gently.
L The paper is inserted halfway. Insert it correctly (page 71) and press {SET}
to clear the message.
L FAX ONLY mode is set. Tell the other party the number is only used for
faxes.
L Change the receiving mode to TEL mode (page 33), TEL/FAX mode (page
34) or TAM/FAX mode (page 35).
L If this button is pressed during dialling, a pause will be inserted. If pressed
immediately after a dial tone is obtained, the last number dialled will be
redialled.
L The Distinctive Ring is set (feature #31 on page 37).
