Trouble
My handset does not ring when I receive a call.
Suggestion
• Make sure you have the ringer activated. Refer to the section(s) on ringer selection
in this user's manual.
• Make sure the telephone line cord is plugged firmly into the telephone base and the
telephone jack. Make sure the power cord is plugged in.
• You may be too far from the telephone base.
• Charge the battery in the wireless handset. For optimum daily performance, return
the handset to its telephone base when not in use.
• You may have too many extension phones on your telephone line to allow all of
them to ring. Try unplugging some of the other phones.
• The layout of your home or office might be limiting the operating range. Try moving
the telephone base to another location, preferably on an upper floor.
• If the other phones in your home are having the issue, the problem is in your wiring
or local service. Contact your local telephone company (charges may apply.)
Test a working phone at the phone jack. If another phone has the same problem,
the problem is the phone jack. Contact your local telephone company (charges may
apply.)
• Other electronic products can cause interference with your cordless phone. Try
installing your phone as far away from these types of electronic devices as possible:
wireless routers, radios, radio towers, pager towers, cell phones, intercoms, room
monitors, televisions, personal computers, kitchen appliances and other cordless
phones
• Your line cord might be malfunctioning. Try installing a new line cord.
