•Check installation:

—Is the base power cord connected to a working outlet?

—Is the Phone-in-Use light on?

—Is the telephone line cord connected to the wall jack?

•Disconnect the base from the wall jack and connect another phone to the same jack. If there is no dial tone in the second phone, the problem might be your wiring or local service.

•Is the handset out of range of the base?

•Make sure the battery is properly charged (12 hours).

•Is the battery pack installed correctly? See page 12.

•Did the handset beep when you pressed the phone button? Did the Phone-in-Use light come on? The battery may need to be charged.

•Reset the security code by placing the handset in the base for about 20 seconds.
