Troubleshooting

Problem

Cause & Remedy

You cannot make an intercom/ outside call.

Your handset is in remote operation mode (p. 64). Exit by pressing [OFF].

The handset you called is too far from the base unit.

If the handset or base unit is in use, you may not be able to make a call. Try again later.

If you are entering a phone number, or the handset enters the Caller List, phone book, redial list or one-touch dialer while the Talking Keypad or Announcement is turned on, you will not be able to make an outside call. To make an outside call, return to the standby mode.

You cannot redial.

• If the last number dialed was more than

 

48 digits long, the number will not be redialed

 

correctly.

interfering with your phone. Disconnect it and

 

try again.

 

• Other electrical appliances connected to the

 

same outlet may be interfering with Caller ID.

 

• Telephone line noise may be affecting Caller ID.

 

• The caller requested not to send his/her

 

Caller ID information (p. 35).

 

• If a call is being transferred to you, the Caller

 

ID information will not be displayed.

 

• If a (separate) Caller ID box is connected

 

between the unit and the telephone wall jack,

 

disconnect the Caller ID box or plug the unit

 

directly into the wall jack.

 

• If the unit is connected to a telephone line

 

with DSL service, the unit may not display

 

caller’s name and/or phone number properly.

 

We recommend connecting a noise filter

 

(contact your DSL service provider) to the

 

telephone line between the base unit and the

 

telephone line jack.
