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-
lem, take your phone to your local RadioShack store for assistance.
Handset does not ring or
receive a page. • Return the handset to the base to recharge
the battery pack.
• Lift the base’s antenna to a fully vertical
position.
• Move the handset closer to the base.
• Move the base away from other electrical
devices.
The handset stops working or
works poorly during a call. • Move the handset closer to the base.
• Fully extend the base’s antenna, and place
it in a vertical position.
• Be sure the handset’s battery 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. The CHARGE indicator lights, indi-
cating that the code is set again.
The call is too noisy. Change channels, or hang up and redial the
number.
