Troubleshooting Tips
Caller ID Solutions
No Display
Is battery fully charged? Charge the battery for 14 hours or
replace the battery. Make sure the battery is properly installed
and connected.
If you are using AC (electrical) power, make sure that the unit
is connected to a non-switched electrical outlet. Disconnect the

Are you subscribed to caller ID service from your local
telephone company?
Caller ID incomplete
The unit displays this message if it detects anything other data
message than valid Caller ID information during the silent
period after the first ring. This message indicates the presence
of noise on the line.
Telephone Solutions
No dial tone
Check installation:
-- Is the base power cord connected to a working electrical
outlet?
-- Is the telephone line cord connected to the base unit and wall
phone jack?
Disconnect the base from wall phone jack and connect another
phone to the same jack. If there is no dial tone on the second
phone, the problem might be your wiring or local service.
The handset might be out of range of the base. Move closer to
the base.
Make sure the battery is properly charged (for 12 hours).
Ensure the battery is installed correctly.
Did the handset beep when you pressed the talk/callback button?
Did the in use indicator come on? The battery may need to be
charged.
Dial tone is OK, but can’t dial out
Make sure the tone/pulse setting is programmed correctly.
Handset does not ring
Make sure the RINGER switch on the handset is turned to ON.
You may have too many extension phones on your line. Try
unplugging some phones.
See solutions for “No dial tone”.
Charge/In Use Indicator on the base flashes
Provided your phone company offers voice messaging service
and you subscribe to it, the charge/in use indicator on the base
flashes when the phone is not in use to indicate there is message
waiting. It stops flashing after message has been reviewed.
Phone dials in pulse with tone service
Make sure the PHONE is in TONE dialing mode.
Phone won’t dial out with pulse service
Make sure the PHONE is in PULSE dialing mode.
You experience static, noise, or fading in and out
Change channels.
The handset maybe out of range. Move closer to the base.
– 14 –
Relocate the base.
Charge the battery.
Make sure base is not plugged into an electrical outlet with
another household appliance.
Unit beeps
Place handset in base cradle for 20 seconds reset the security
code. If that doesn’t work, charge the battery for 12 hours.
Clean the charging contacts on the handset and base with a soft
cloth or an eraser.
See solutions for “No dial tone”.
Replace the battery.
Memory Dialing
Did you program the memory location keys correctly?
Did you follow the proper dialing sequence?
Make sure the tone/pulse setting is programmed correctly.
Did you reprogram numbers into memory after a power outage
or battery replacement?
Cause of Poor Reception
Aluminum siding.
Foil backing on insulation.
Heating ducts and other metal construction can shield radio
signals.
You’re too close to appliances such as microwaves, stoves,
computers, etc.
Atmospheric conditions, such as strong storm.
Base is installed in the basement or lower floor of the house.
Baby monitor is using the same frequency.
Handset battery is low.
You’re out of range of the base.
General Product Care
To keep your telephone working and looking good, follow these
guidelines:
Avoid putting the phone near heating appliances and devices
that generate electrical noise (for example, motors or
fluorescent lamps).
DO NOT expose to direct sunlight or moisture.
Avoid dropping and other rough treatment to the phone.
Clean with a soft cloth.
Never use a strong cleaning agent or abrasive powder because
this will damage the finish.
