• Check installation:

— Is LINE 1/LINE 2 indicator on?
— Is the telephone line cord connected to the base unit and
the wall jack?
— Is a headset connected to the handset? The handset
receiver and microphone are temporarily disabled when
you connect the headset
• Disconnect the base from the wall jack and connect another
phone to the same jack. If there is no dial tone in the second
phone, the problem might be your wiring or local service.
• Is the handset out of the base unit's range? Move closer to
the base unit.
• Make sure the battery is properly charged (12 hours).

and remove the battery pack. Then reconnect the power cord
and reinstall the battery pack. Place handset in the base for 20
seconds to allow it to reinitialize.

correctly.
