Suggestion
•
Clean the charging contacts on the cordless handset(s) and telephone
base each month using a pencil eraser or a dry non-abrasive fabric.
•
Make sure the power adapter and telephone line cords are plugged in
correctly and securely.
•
Unplug the power adapter. Wait for 15 seconds before plugging it back
in. Allow up to one minute for the cordless handset and telephone
base to synchronize.
•
The telephone might be malfunctioning. Please refer to the Limited
Warranty section of this user's manual for further instruction.
•
This is a signal that the battery is very low, completely depleted, or
when there is no electrical contact between the battery and the tele-
phone base.
•
Ensure the connector of the battery is securely plugged into the hand-
set and place the handset in the telephone base for charging.
•
First, try all the above suggestions.
•
Move the cordless handset closer to the telephone base. It might be
out of range.
•
The telephone line cord might be malfunctioning. Try installing a new
telephone line cord.
•
Disconnect the telephone base from the telephone jack and connect a
different telephone. If there is no dial tone on this telephone either, the
problem is in the wiring or the local service. Contact the local tele-
phone company.
