Troubleshooting

Problem

Suggestion

 

 

I cannot dial out.

• First, try all the above suggestions.

 

• Make sure there is a dial tone before dialing. It is normal if the handset takes a second or two

 

to synchronize with the telephone base before producing a dial tone. Wait an extra second

 

before dialing.

 

• Make sure the telephone is set to the correct dial type (pulse dial or tone dial) for the service in

 

your area. See Dial mode on page 10 to set the dial type.

 

• If the other telephones in your home are having the same problem, the problem is in the wiring

 

or local service. Contact your local telephone company (charges may apply).

 

• Eliminate any background noise. Noise from a television, radio, or other appliances may

 

cause the telephone not to dial out properly. If you cannot eliminate the background noise,

 

first try muting the handset before dialing, or dialing from another room in your home with less

 

background noise.
