There is no dial tone.

Check all phone line connections.

 

 

 

Make sure the AC adapter is properly connected.

If you still have problems, disconnect the phone. If other phones on the same line work properly, the fault is in this phone or its installation. If you cannot find the prob- lem, take your TAD-732 to your local RadioShack store for assistance.
