In case of difficulty

If you have difficulty with your phone, please try the suggestions below. For Customer Service, visit our web site at www.telephones.att.com, or call 1-800-222–3111.

Telephone does not work at all

Make sure the battery is installed and charged correctly (see page 8).

Make sure the AC adapter is plugged into an outlet not controlled by a wall switch.

Make sure the telephone line cord is plugged firmly into the base unit and the modular jack.

If these suggestions do not work, unplug the base, remove and re- insert the battery, then place the handset in the charger to re-initial- ize.

Phone does not ring

Make sure the ringer is on (see pages 18-19).

Make sure the telephone line cord and AC adapter are plugged in properly (see pages 6-7).

Move the handset closer to the base.

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

If you hear noise or interference during a call

You may be out of range. Move closer to the base.

Appliances plugged into the same circuit as the base can cause interference. Try moving the appliance or base to another outlet.

The layout of your home or office might be limiting the operating range. Try moving the base to another location, preferably on an upper floor.

Disconnect the base from the modular jack and plug in a corded tele- phone. If calls are still not clear, the problem is probably in your wiring or local service. Call your local telephone service company.

Do you have DSL service? If so, you need to have a DSL filter installed at every phone jack that has a phone connected to it. Contact your DSL service provider for filter information.

Do you have a wireless router or a computer with a wireless LAN card? If so, place the corded base unit and the cordless handset at least 3 feet away from your wireless router, computer, or cordless remote charger to avoid interference.

Buttons don’t

the charger for at least 15 seconds.
