IN CASE OF DIFFICULTY

If you have difficulty operating your phone, the suggestions below should solve the problem. If you still have difficulty after trying these suggestions, call the Sprint National Help Desk at 1- 800-949-4357.

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 pack is properly charged. If the "LOW BATTERY" message is shown, the battery pack needs 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. Call your local telephone company.

YOU GET NOISE, STATIC, OR A WEAK SIGNAL EVEN WHEN YOU’RE NEAR THE BASE UNIT.

Household appliances plugged into the same circuit as the Base Unit can sometimes cause interference. Try moving the appliance or the Base Unit to

another outlet.

YOU GET NOISE, STATIC, OR A WEAK SIGNAL WHEN YOU’RE AWAY FROM THE BASE UNIT.

You may be out of range. Either move close to or relocate the Base Unit.

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

THE HANDSET DOES NOT RING WHEN YOU RECEIVE A CALL.

Make sure you have the Handset ringer activated.

Make sure the telephone line 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. And the "OUT OF RANGE" message is shown on LCD.

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

YOU HEAR OTHER CALLS WHILE USING YOUR 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.
