For Customer Service, visit our website at www.telephones.att.com or call

1 800 222–3111.Please retain your receipt as your proof of purchase.

If the phone does not work at all, check these items first:

Make sure the power cord is plugged into the base and an electrical outlet not controlled by a wall switch.

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

If the phone does not beep, or beeps four times when you press P, the battery pack might need recharging or replacement.

If the battery does not charge after six hours, replace it with Replacement Battery 3500 (SKU# 90817).

Make sure the battery pack is installed correctly.

If the above suggestions do not solve the problem, try re-initializing the handset and base (see “To re-initialize the handset and base” below).

If you have no dial tone:

Check all the previous suggestions. If you still do not hear a dial tone, disconnect the phone and try another phone in the same jack. If there is no dial tone on that phone either, the problem is probably in your wiring or local service.

If you hear a two-beep signal when you try to use the handset:

The handset and base are not communicating properly. You might be out of range. Move closer to the base and try again.

If moving closer to the base does not help, follow the directions below to re-initialize the handset and base.

To re-initialize the handset and base:

1Disconnect the power to the base.

2Remove the handset battery pack.

3Wait at least 15 seconds.

4Insert the handset battery pack.

5Connect the power to the base.

6Put the handset in the base to re-initialize.
