 | 
 | 
 | 
| I cannot dial out.. | • | Make sure you have a dial tone before dialing. The handset may take a second or two to find | 
| 
 | 
 | the telephone 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 touchtone).. Refer to the Telephone settings 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.. |
