Problem
The handset stops working or
works poorly during a call.
The TAD does not answer calls.
The TAD does not record call-
ers' messages.
Low Battery flashes on the
display every few seconds.
You have an incoming call, but
do not receive any Caller ID
information.
If you still have problems, disconnect the TAD-729. 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
Move the handset closer to the base.
Lift the base's antenna to a vertical position.
Be sure the battery pack is charged. (If the battery
power is too low, it does not have enough power to light
the display.)
If the base loses power while the handset is away, the
security access-protection code might change. Restore
power to the base, then place the handset back on the
base. The CHARGE/IN USE indicator lights, indicating
that the code is set again.
Check the charging contacts on the handset and base. If
they are dirty, clean them with a pencil eraser.
Make sure the TAD is turned on.
Make sure the AC adapter is properly connected.
Check all phone line connections.

Be sure the battery pack is correctly connected.
Let the phone ring twice before you answer so the sys-
tem has time to record the Caller ID information.
Check that the system is correctly and securely con-
nected.
Call your phone company to verify that your Caller ID
service is active.
