If you get a four-beep signal when you try to use the handset:

The four-beep signal means that the handset and base are not communicating properly. This problem may be caused by something as simple as being out of range while attempting to dial. If that’s the case, you’ll be able to solve the problem by moving closer to the base and trying the call again.

If this doesn’t help, the problem may be that the handset and base are set to different security codes. To reset the security code, try the suggestions below:

•Place the handset in the base, and check to make sure that the IN USE/CHARGE indicator is on. Wait 15 seconds, then pick up the handset, make sure the base antenna is upright and press . The PHONE indicator should go on, and the phone should operate properly. If it doesn’t, try the next step.
