•Move the handset closer to the telephone base. It might be out of range.

•The telephone line cord might be malfunctioning. Install a new telephone line cord.

•Disconnect the telephone base from the telephone wall jack and connect a different telephone. If there is no dial tone on this telephone either, the problem is in your wiring or local service. Contact your local telephone company.

•Make sure the handset ringer volume is not set to the lowest level (page 10).

•Other electronic products can cause interference to your cordless telephone. Install your telephone as far away as possible from electronic devices such as: wireless routers, radios, cellular telephones, digital telephones, intercoms, room monitors, televisions, VCRs, personal computers, kitchen appliances, and other cordless telephones.

•Test a working telephone at the telephone wall jack. If another telephone has the same problem, the problem is in the telephone wall jack. Contact your local telephone company (charges may apply).

•Re-install the battery and place the handset in the telephone base.
