Caller ID entries do not match the numbers I need to dial.
Caller ID service delivers 10 digits (the area code plus the seven-digits number). If
you need to dial something other 10 digits, see page 39 for instructions on changing
the number.
If you dial seven digits for local calls, you may want to use the home area code
feature (page 14).

The handset may be out of range. Move it closer to the telephone base.
Make sure the power cord is securely plugged into the telephone base. Use a
working electrical outlet not controlled by a wall switch.
Reset your telephone by unplugging the power adapter from the telephone base.
Disconnect the battery from the cordless handset. Wait for 15 seconds, then plug in
the power adapter and install the battery again. Place the handset in the telephone
base and allow up to one minute for the handset and telephone base to synchronize.
