I cannot dial out.. | • | Make sure you have a dial tone before dialing. The handset may take a second or two to find |
| |
|
| the base and produce a dial tone.. This is normal.. Wait an extra second before dialing.. |
|
|
| • Make sure your phone is set to the correct dial mode for the type of service that you have (pulse |
| ||
|
| or touch tone).. Refer to the Installation section of this user’s manual to set the dial mode.. |
|
|
| • | If the other phones in your home are having the issue, the problem is in your wiring or local |
| |
|
| service.. Contact your local telephone company.. |
|
|
| • Eliminate any background noise.. Noise from a television, radio or other appliance may cause |
| ||
|
| the phone 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.. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
UNABLE TO CALL | • | Only two handsets of your phone system can be in use (off hook) at a time.. For example, if |
|
|
TRY AGAIN displays |
| HS1 and HS2 are on a call and HS3 presses TALK, UNABLE TO CALL TRY AGAIN will |
|
|
on my handset.. |
| display.. Be sure only two handsets are in use at a time.. |
|
|
| • Move the handset closer to the base.. You might have moved out of range.. |
|
| |
| • If the handset is in its base and the charging light does not light, refer to the Charge light is |
| ||
|
| off section in this troubleshooting guide.. |
|
|
| • Reset the base.. Unplug the unit’s electrical power.. Wait for 15 seconds then plug it back in.. |
| ||
|
| Allow up to one minute for the handset and base to reset.. |
|
|
| • | Other electronic products can cause interference with your cordless phone.. Try installing |
| |
|
| your phone as far away from these types of electronic devices as possible: wireless routers, |
| |
|
| radios, radio towers, pager towers, cell phones, intercoms, room monitors, televisions, personal |
| |
|
| computers, kitchen appliances and other cordless phones.. |
