I cannot dial out.

Appendix Troubleshooting Problem I cannot dial out. Suggestion • Make sure there is a dial tone before dialing on the HOME line. It is normal if the handset takes a second or two to synchronize with the telephone before producing a dial tone. Wait an extra second before dialing. • If the other telephones in your home are having the same problem, the problem is in the wiring or local service. Contact your local telephone company (charges may apply). • Eliminate any background noise. Noise from a television, radio, or other appliances may cause the telephone 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 in your home with less background noise. www.vtechphones.com 107

Make sure there ±s a d±al tone before d±al±ng on the

a second or two to synchron±ze w±th the telephone before produc±ng a d±al tone. Wa±t an extra
second before d±al±ng.
If the other telephones ±n your home are hav±ng the same problem, the problem ±s ±n the w±r±ng
or local serv±ce. Contact your local telephone company (charges may apply).
El±m±nate any background no±se. No±se from a telev±s±on, rad±o, or other appl±ances may cause
