No Dial Tone

• Make sure all plugs are connected properly.

Inspect the line cord connections at the modular
jack and at the telephone. Also inspect the
coiled handset cord connections at both ends.

• Unplug the telephone and connect it to another

modular jack. If it still does not work, and other
telephones in your home are working, the
problem is with this telephone.

Telephone Does Not Ring

• Make sure the RINGER switch is not set to

OFF

• If there are several other telephones on the

same line, try disconnecting some of the other
telephones. Having too many telephones
connected can also create problems such as
low ringer volume or impaired sound quality
during calls.

Difficulty Storing Numbers in Memory

• Make sure you are pressing the correct

sequence of buttons for storing numbers.

• If you are interrupted by a recorded

announcement telling you to hang up or by a
loud buzzing noise, hang up and try to enter
the number more quickly.

• Try calling the number you want to store in

memory. When the call is ended press P,

, then a one-touch button (

or )

or m and a memory location (0–9).

• If someone lifts an extension phone while you

are storing numbers in memory, programming
might be interrupted. Make sure all extensions
are on hook while storing numbers in memory.

New Call Light Stays On
