If the unit does not seem to be responding normally, then try putting the handset in the base to reinitialize the unit. If it still does not seem to respond after doing this a few times, do the following (in the order listed):

1.Unplug the power cord. 2.Remove the handset battery. 3.Wait a few minutes.

4.Plug the power cord into an electrical outlet. 5.Install the handset battery.

6.Put the handset in the base to reinitialize.

2.Unplug AC adapter from wall outlet. 3.Wait 15 seconds.

4.Reconnect AC adapter. 5.Wait 15 seconds.

6.Pick up handset and press PHONE button.

Single Audio Path Mutes

Ringing from another line may briefly mute a conversation since this product is designed with a single audio path. This is a normal occurence.

Chirping Sounds

If chirping sounds are detected from the handset or base, check the following possible causes:

·Smoke detectors

·Other cordless telephones ·Alarm clocks

To enable the unit to work with business systems: ·Install the unit at the control box, or

·Wire a jack around the system.

NOTE: Unit will not have business system features if installed in this manner. Check with the local telephone company to inquire as to possible low line voltage. NOTE: The recommended voltage is 24 to 48 on hook.

Due to reduced line voltage, avoid having additional extension telephones "off the hook" during a call.

Wet Handset

A handset dropped in water may still operate if left out to dry. 1.Empty any residual water.

2.Leave handset face down on a towel to dry for 72 hours.

3.If handset does not operate after 72 hours, send it in for repair.
