Troubleshooting

• Relocate your telephone base to a higher location.

The phone might have better reception when installed
in a high area.

• If the other phones in your home are having the same

problem, contact your local telephone company
(charges may apply).

The charge light
is off.

• Make sure you plug the power and line cords in

correctly and securely.

• Unplug the electrical power. Wait for 15 seconds,

then plug it back in. Allow up to one minute for the
cordless handset and telephone base to reset.

• Clean the cordless handset and telephone base

charging contacts each month with a pencil eraser or
cloth.

My caller ID isn’t
working.

• Caller ID is a subscription service. You must subscribe

to this service from your local telephone company for
this feature to work on your phone.

• The caller must be calling from an area that supports

caller ID.

• Both you and your caller’s telephone companies must

use caller ID compatible equipment.

• If you subscribe to high-speed Internet service (digital

subscriber line - DSL) through your telephone lines,
you must install a DSL filter between the telephone
base and the telephone wall jack (page 5). The filter
prevents noise and caller ID problems resulting from
DSL interference. Please contact your DSL service
provider for more information about DSL filters.

System does not
receive caller ID
when on a call.

• Make sure you subscribe to caller ID with call waiting

features from your local telephone company. Caller ID
features works only if both you and the caller are in
areas offering caller ID service, and if both telephone
companies use compatible equipment.
