Remember to save your sales receipt and original packaging in case you ever need to
ship your telephone for warranty service. Check to make sure the telephone package
includes the following:
About Caller Identification
Telephone operating range
Caller ID with Call Waiting features in
this telephone let you see who’s calling
before you answer the phone, even
when you’re on another call. These
features require services provided by
your local telephone company.
This cordless telephone operates with
the maximum power allowed by the
Federal Communications Commission
(FCC). Even so, this handset and base
can communicate over only a certain
distance — which can vary with the
locations of the base and handset, the
weather, and the construction of your
home or office. For best performance,
keep the base antenna fully upright.
Contact your telephone service
provider if:
Wall mount bracket
Telephone base
• You have both Caller ID and Call
Waiting, but as separate services
(you may need combined service)
If you receive a call while you are
out of range, the handset might not
ring — or if it does ring, the call might
not connect when you press PHONE.
Move closer to the base, then press
PHONE to answer the call.
• You have only Caller ID service, or
only Call Waiting service
Power
adapter
Long line cord
Telephone
handset
Short line cord
Batteries
• You don’t subscribe to any Caller
ID or Call Waiting services.
If you move out of range during a
phone conversation, you might hear
noise or interference. To improve
reception, move closer to the base.
You can use this phone with regular
Caller ID service, and you can use its
other features without subscribing to
either Caller ID or combined Caller ID
with Call Waiting service. There may
be fees for these services, and they
may not be available in all areas.
If you move out of range without
pressing OFF, your phone will be left
“off the hook.” To hang up properly,
walk back toward the telephone base,
periodically pressing OFF until the call
is disconnected.
Caller ID features will work only if
both you and the caller are in areas
offering Caller ID service, and if both
telephone companies use compatible
equipment.
Belt clip
See Caller ID Operation, beginning on
page 21, for more details about how
these features work.

In case of difficulty
In case of difficulty
If you have difficulty with your phone, please try the suggestions below. For Customer
Service, visit our web site at www.telephones.att.com, or call 1 800 222–3111.
Telephone does
not work at all
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.
Incomplete
messages
•
If a caller leaves a very long message, part of it may be lost when the
system disconnects the call after 4 minutes.
•
Make sure batteries are installed and charged correctly (see page 7).
•
Make sure the AC adapter is plugged into an outlet not controlled by
a wall switch.
•
Make sure the telephone line cord is plugged firmly into the base unit
and the modular jack.
•
If the caller pauses for more than 7 seconds, the system stops
recording and disconnects the call.
•
Make sure the base antenna is fully upright.
•
•
If these suggestions do not work, unplug the base, remove and reinsert the batteries, then place the handset in the base to re-initialize.
If the system’s memory becomes full during a message,the system
stops recording and disconnects the call.
•
Press
•
Make sure that the answering system is on.
•
If Toll Saver is activated, the number of rings changes to two when
you have new messages waiting (see page 28).
•
In some cases, the system may be affected by the ringing system
used by the local telephone company.
•
If the memory is full or the system is off, the system will answer after
10 rings.
“CL” appears in
message window
•
You need to reset the answering system clock (see page 25).
System does
not respond
to remote
commands
•
Make sure to enter your Remote Access Code correctly (see page 33).
•
Make sure you are calling from a touch-tone phone. When you dial a
number, you should hear tones. If you hear clicks, the phone is not a
touch-tone telephone and cannot activate the answering system.
•
The answering system may not detect the Remote Access Code
while your announcement is playing. Try waiting until the announcement is over before entering the code.
•
There may be noise or interference on the phone line you are using.
Press dial-pad buttons firmly.
•
When you record your announcement, make sure you speak in a
normal tone of voice, about 9 inches from the base.
•
Make sure there is no “background” noise (TV, music, etc.) while you
are recording.
Difficulty hearing messages
Phone does not
ring
If you hear
noise or
interference
during a call
•
Make sure the ringer is on (see pages 14-15).
•
Make sure the telephone line cord and AC adapter are plugged in
properly (see page 6).
•
Make sure the base antenna is fully upright.
•
Move the handset closer to the base.
•
You might have too many extension phones on your telephone line to
allow all of them to ring. Try unplugging some of them.
•
Make sure the base antenna is fully upright.
•
You may be out of range. Move closer to the base.
•
Appliances plugged into the same circuit as the base can cause
interference. Try moving the appliance or base to another outlet.
•
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.
•
Disconnect the base from the modular jack and plug in a corded telephone. If calls are still not clear, the problem is probably in your
wiring or local service. Call your local telephone service company.
