• If the phone stops operating prop-
erly, check the base’s phone line
cord and AC adapter connections. If
the connections are secure but the
phone still does not work, unplug
the base’s AC adapter from the AC
outlet and disconnect the handset’s
battery pack. Wait 3 minutes, then
reconnect the battery pack and plug
the AC adapter back into the AC
outlet. The phone should operate
properly.
• If the battery pack becomes weak,
the handset sounds a short beep
every 16 seconds during a call and
the BATT LOW indicator flashes.
Within about 10 minutes, the phone
will automatically disconnect. Re-
charge the battery pack.
• If the battery pack loses its charge
completely or the base loses power
while the handset is away from it,
the security access-protection code
needs to be reset. To reset the secu-
rity code, place the handset on the
base. If it was the handset that lost
power, leave the handset on the
base to charge the battery pack.
• About once a month, fully discharge
the battery pack by keeping the
handset off the base until the BATT
LOW indicator turns on. Otherwise,
it loses its ability to fully recharge,
and you might have to recharge and
replace it more often.
SETTING THE DIALING
MODE
Set
T/P
(Tone/Pulse
)
for the type of ser-
vice you have. If you are not sure which
type you have, do this test after the bat-
tery pack is fully charged.

T/P
on the back of base
to
T
.
2. Press
TALK

tone.

If your phone system requires
that you dial an access code (
9
, for
example) before you dial an outside
number, do not press the access
code either.
If the dial tone stops, you have
touch-tone service. Leave
T/P
set to
T
.
If the tone continues, you have
pulse (rotary) service. Set
T/P
to
P

on the base or press
TALK

TALK indicator on the handset and
the IN USE indicator on the base
turn off.
