Troubleshooting
The display shows No home line. I cannot get a dial tone.
Try all the suggestions, as mentioned above.
If the previous suggestions do not work, disconnect the telephone line
cord from your telephone and connect the telephone line cord to another
telephone.
If there is no dial tone on that other telephone either, the telephone
line cord may be defective. Install a new telephone line cord.
If changing the telephone line cord does not help, the wall jack (or the
wiring to this wall jack) may be defective. Try using a different wall jack
in your home to connect your CLP99286/CLP99386/CLP99456/
CLP99486/CLP99546/CLP99556/CLP99586 telephone, or contact your
telephone service provider (charges may apply).
I cannot dial out.
Try all the suggestions, as mentioned above.
Make sure you have a dial tone before dialing. The cordless handset may
take a second or two to find the telephone base and produce a dial tone.
This is normal. Wait an extra second before dialing.
Eliminate any background noise. Noise from a television, radio or other
appliances may cause the phone to not dial out properly. If you cannot
eliminate the background noise, first try muting the cordless handset
before dialing, or dialing from another room with less background noise.
If other phones in your home are having the same problem, contact your
telephone service provider (charges may apply).
During power outage, I put a handset in the telephone base but the
system fails to power up.
Make sure the handset you placed in the telephone base has enough
charge to power up the system.
Try removing and re-installing the handset’s battery. Place the handset in
the telephone base again.
