In Case Of Difficulty

If you have difficulties in operating your phone, the suggestions below should solve the problem. If you still have difficulties after trying these suggestions, call VTECH Communications at 1-800-595-9511. In Canada, call VTECH Telecommunications Canada Ltd. at 1-800-267-7377.

The Phone Doesn’t Work At All

•Make sure the Power Cord is plugged in.

•Make sure the telephone line cord is plugged firmly into the Base Unit and the telephone wall jack.

•Make sure the battery cells are properly charged. If you get a ‘LOW BATTERY’ message or indication, the battery cells need charging.

No Dial Tone

•First check all the suggestions above.

•If you still don’t hear a dial tone, disconnect the Base Unit from the telephone jack and connect a different phone. If there is no dial tone on that phone either, the problem is in your wiring or local service. Contact your local telephone company.

You Get Noise, Static, Or A Weak Signal Even WhenYou are Near The Base Unit

•Household appliances plugged into the same circuit as the Base Unit can sometimes cause interference. Try to move the appliance or the Base Unit to another outlet.

You Get Noise, Static, Or A Weak Signal WhenYou are Away FromThe Base Unit

•You may be out of range. Either move closer to the Base, or relocate the Base Unit.

•The layout of your home may be limiting the range. Try to move the Base Unit to another position.

The Handset Does Not Ring WhenYou Receive A Call

•Make sure you have the ringers activated. Refer to the section(s) on Ringer Volume and Answering System Feature Setup in this User's Manual.

•Make sure the telephone cord is plugged firmly into the Base Unit and the telephone jack. Make sure the power cord is plugged in.

•You may be too far from the Base Unit.

•You may have too many extension phones on your telephone line to allow all of them to ring. Try to unplug some of the other phones.

You Hear Other Calls While UsingYour Phone

•Disconnect your Base Unit from the telephone jack, and plug in a regular telephone. If you still hear other calls, the problem is probably in your wiring or local service. Call your local telephone company.
