Return the handset to the base for about 5 seconds to reset the security access-protection code. The handset stops working or works poorly during a call.
Problem The handset does not ring or receive a page. Suggestion Move the handset closer to the base. Lift the base’s antenna to a vertical position. Be sure the battery pack in the handset is connected and charged. Move the base away from other electrical devices. You have an incoming call, but do not receive any Caller ID information. Let the phone ring twice before you answer so the phone has time to record the Caller ID information. Check that the phone is correctly and securely connected.
