NOTE:
If you experience difficulty with placing or
receiving calls, the lost security code may
be the cause of the problem. When this
occurs, the handset can no longer com-
municate with its base. The loss of the
code can occur in any of the following
ways: if the battery is drained and needs
rech arging; the handset is out of range of
the base unit; the AC adaptor is discon-
nected or a power loss has occurred; or
anthing that causes electrical interference,
for example multiple cordless telephones,
baby monitors, televisions, VCR's etc.
Reset the security code by placing the
handset on the base for 10 seconds. If
that does not work, make sure the AC
adaptor is connected. If necessary, un-
plug the AC adaptor from the power
source. Disconnect the battery for 5 sec-
onds and then reconnect. Place the hand-
set on the base and then replug the AC
adaptor (see Troubleshooting).
