Problem
Handset doesn't ring or
receive a page.
The handset stops working or
works poorly during a call.
The call is too noisy.
If you still have problems, disconnect the phone. If other phones on the same line
work properly, the fault is in this phone or its installation. If you cannot find the prob-
lem, take your phone to your local RadioShack store for assistance
Suggestion
• Fully extend the base's antenna in a verti-
cal position.
• Move the handset closer to the base.
• Move the handset or base away from other
electrical devices and sources of noise.
• The handset's battery pack might be weak.
Return the handset to the base, and
recharge the battery.
• Fully extend the base's antenna in a verti-
cal position.
• Move the handset closer to the base.
• Make sure the charging contacts on the
handset and base are clean before you
charge the handset.
• Be sure the handset's battery is charged.
(If the battery power is too low, it does not
have enough power to light the BATT LOW
indicator.)
• If the base loses power while the handset
is off of it, the security access-protection
code might change. Restore power to the
base, then place the handset back on the
base for a few moments.
Change channels or hang up and redial the
number.
