Make sure you have a dial tone before dialing. The corded handset might take a second or two to connect 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 might cause the telephone to not dial out properly. If you cannot eliminate the background noise, first try muting the corded handset before dialing, or dialing from another room by a cordless handset with less background noise.
