ERROR MESSAGE IS DISPLAYED

ERROR appears in the display if the unit detects anything other than valid Caller ID information during the silent period after the first ring. This message indicates either the presence of noise on the line, or that an invalid message has been sent from the telephone company.

PHONE DOES NOT DIAL OUT

Check the dial mode in the setup menu. Is it set to tone, which may not be compatible with your local dialing service?

PHONE DOES NOT RING

Is the ringer switch in the OFF position?

Are you using too many phones on one line? (The total REN of all phones on the same line should not be greater than the maximum REN for your calling area. See FCC Registration Information)

Perform the checks under the first problem (Number 1). Is the hook switch depressed fully when handset is in cradle?
