If the fault persists...
• Disconnect all other instruments connected to the same line and try
to make a call.
• Disconnect the base unit from the telephone line and plug a
different phone into the master telephone socket. Try making a call.
If this works, the line is OK.
• If the call does not work, and you are using a two-way socket
adapter, remove it and plug a telephone directly into the socket.
• If the call now works, the adapter may be faulty.
• If you cannot make a call, the fault may be on the exchange line.
