If you still have problems, disconnect the phone. If other phones on the same line
work properly, the fault is in this phone or its installation. If you cannot find the prob-

• Lift the base’s antenna to a fully vertical

position.

• Move the handset closer to the base.

• Move the handset and base away from

other electrical devices.

• Return the handset to the base to recharge

the battery pack.

The handset stops working or
works poorly during a call.

• Fully extend the base’s antenna, and place

it in a vertical position.

• Move the handset closer to the base.

• Be sure the handset’s battery pack is

charged. (If the battery power is too low, it
does not have enough power to light the
BATT LOW indicator.)

• If the base loses power while the handset

is off of it, the security access-protection
code might change. Restore power to the
base, then place the handset back on the
base and leave it there for a few seconds.

The call is too noisy.

Change channels, or hang up and redial the
number.
