Additional Information
In Case Of Difficulty
You hear other calls while using your phone
Disconnect your base unit from the telephone jack, and plug in a regular telephone.
If you still hear other calls, the problem is probably in your wiring or local service.
Call your local telephone company.
You hear noise in the handset, and none of the keys or buttons work
Make sure the power cord is plugged in.
Common cure for electronic equipment
If the unit does not seem to be responding normally, then try putting the Handset in its
base. If it does not seem to respond, do the following (in the order listed):
1. Disconnect the power to the base.
2. Disconnect the handset battery, and spare battery, if applicable.
3. Wait a few minutes.
4. Connect power to the base.
5. Re-install the battery.
6. Wait for the handset to re-establish its link with the base. To be safe, allow up to
one minute for this to take place.
