I cannot dial out.
First, try all the above suggestions.
Make sure there is a dial tone before dialing. It is normal if the cordless handset takes a
second or two to synchronize with the telephone base 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.
