•  Check or repeat installation steps:
  Make sure the base power cord is connected to a working electrical outlet.
  Make sure the telephone line cord is connected to the base and the  

wall  jack.

•  Connect another phone to the same wall jack; if it doesn’t work, the 

problem might be your wiring or local service.

•  The handset may be out of range of the base. Move closer to the base.
•  Make sure the battery is properly charged (16 hours).
•  Make sure the battery pack (in the handset) is properly installed.
•  The handset should beep when you press the talk/callback button, and 

the charge/in use indicator on the base should be lit when the handset 

rests in the cradle. If not, the battery may need to be charged.

•  Place the handset in the base for at least 20 seconds to reset the unit.
