Why **** I getting a beeping sound from my telephone base?

The beeping sound from your VTech VG231 telephone base could be due to several reasons:

1. Handset Out of Range – If the handset is too far from the base, it may lose connection and cause a beeping sound. Move it closer to the base.
2. Power Issues – Ensure the telephone base power adapter is properly plugged in. Try unplugging it and plugging it back in.
3. Voicemail or Message Alerts – A new voicemail or message indicator may cause the base to beep. Check and clear any new voicemail or message notifications.
4. Interference or Line Issues – Background noise or interference from other electrical devices could cause irregular sounds. Ensure the phone line is securely plugged in and not affected by interference from DSL services or other electronics.

If the issue persists, refer to the manual for troubleshooting or contact VTech support.
