IN CASE OF DIFFICULTY

Using the handset near household appliances (microwaves, computers, television, stereos, etc.) can sometimes cause interference. Move away from appliances while using the handset.

The layout of your home or office might be limiting the operating range. Try moving the base to another location, preferably on an upper floor.

If the buttons don’t work, try placing the handset in the base for at least 15 seconds.

If you hear other calls while using your phone:

Press PROG/CHAN to change to another channel.

Disconnect the base from the modular jack and plug in a corded telephone. If you still hear other calls, the problem is probably in your wiring or local service. Call your local telephone service company.

If you lose a call after changing channels:

You were probably almost out of range. Move closer to the base before changing channels. Before placing another call, set the handset in the base for at least 15 seconds.

If you are unable to operate special telephone services or other equipment requiring touch tone signals:

If you have dial pulse (rotary) service, follow the directions under “Temporary Tone Dialing” in the TELEPHONE OPERATION section of this manual.

If the MESSAGE light on the base does not go off even after you’ve listened to voice mail messages:

1Press PROG/CHAN.

2Press until the screen displays MESSAGES WAITING .

3Press SELECT. The screen displays LIGHTS OFF:YES .

4Press SELECT again to turn off the MESSAGE light on base.
