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.

Make sure the battery pack is installed correctly.

If the screen displays LOW BATTERY, place the handset in the base and charge for at least eight hours.

If the battery does not charge after eight hours, replace it with Replacement Battery 2401, SKU# 91077.

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.

1Disconnect the power to the base.

2Remove the handset battery pack.

3Wait at least 15 seconds.
