Troubleshooting
| • | Make sure you have a dial tone before dialing. The |
|
| cordless handset may take a second or two to find the |
|
| telephone base and produce a dial tone. This is normal. |
|
| Wait an extra second before dialing. |
| • | Eliminate any background noise. Noise from a |
|
| television, radio or other appliances may cause the |
|
| phone to not dial out properly. If you cannot eliminate |
|
| the background noise, first try muting the cordless |
|
| handset before dialing, or dialing from another room in |
|
| your home with less background noise. |
| • | If the other phones in your home are having the same |
|
| problem, the problem is in your wiring or local service. |
|
| Contact your local telephone company (charges may |
|
| apply). |
