Phone does not work

Have you installed the batteries correctly? See page 7.

Check that the mains power is correctly connected.

No dial tone

Is the telephone cord of the base plugged into the phone socket?

Check that the mains power is correctly connected.

Only use the telephone cord supplied with the phone.

Cannot dial out or receive calls

Check that the mains power is correctly connected.

The batteries may need recharging.

Has there been a power cut? If so, place the handset back on the base for 10 seconds and try again. If it still does not work disconnect the batteries and mains power for 10 minutes, then reconnect and try again.

You have a dial tone, but the phone will not dial out

You may need to change the dial mode from tone to pulse, see page 31.

If you are connected to a switchboard, check whether you need to dial an access code.

Handset does not ring

The ringer volume may be switched off, see page 26.

Check that the mains power is correctly connected.

Make sure the handset is registered to the base, see page 53.
