suggestions, as mentioned below. For Customer Service, visit our
website at www.telephones.att.com or call
1 [phone]. In Canada, dial 1 [phone].
The handset registration is unsuccessful.
Follow the handset registration instructions to register the handset

Make sure you plug the battery connector securely into the
cordless handset.
Make sure you plug the telephone line cord securely and firmly
into the telephone base and the telephone wall jack.
Charge the battery in the cordless handset for at least 10 hours.

the telephone base or charger when not in use.
If the battery is depleted, it might take approximately 30 minutes
to charge the handset before it shows Low battery. See page 6
for details.
Reset the telephone base. Unplug the electrical power. Wait for
approximately 15 seconds, then plug it back in. Allow up to one
minute for the cordless handset and telephone base to reset.
You may need to purchase a new battery. Refer to Battery
installation and charging in this user’s manual on pages 6-8.

I cannot dial out.
Try all the suggestions, as mentioned above.
Make sure you have a dial tone before dialing. The cordless handset
might take a second or two to find the telephone base and produce
a dial tone. This is normal. Wait an extra second before dialing.
Eliminate any background noise. Noise from a television, radio or
other appliances might cause the phone to not dial out properly.
If you cannot eliminate the background noise, try muting the
cordless handset before dialing, or dialing from another room
with less background noise.
If other phones in your home are having the same problem,
contact your telephone service provider (charges might apply).
My cordless handset isn’t performing normally.
Make sure you plug the power cord securely into the telephone
base. Plug the power adapter into a different, working electrical
outlet without a wall switch.
Move the cordless handset closer to the telephone base. You
might have moved out of range.
Reset the telephone base. Unplug the electrical power. Wait for
15 seconds, then plug it back in. Allow up to one minute for the
cordless handset and telephone base to reset.
Other electronic products such as HAM radios and other DECT
phones, can cause interference with your cordless phone. Try
installing your phone as far away as possible from these types
of electronic devices.

I get noise, static, or weak signals even when I’m near the

If you subscribe to high-speed Internet service (DSL - digital
subscriber line) through your telephone line, you must install a
DSL filter between the telephone line cord and the telephone
wall jack. The filter prevents noise and caller ID problems as
a result of DSL interference. Please contact your DSL service
provider for more information about DSL filters.
You may be able to improve the performance of your cordless
phone by installing your new telephone base as far as possible
from any other existing cordless telephone system that may
already be installed.
Other electronic products such as HAM radios and other DECT
phones, can cause interference with your cordless phone. Try
installing your phone as far away as possible from these types
of electronic devices.
Do not install this phone near a microwave oven or on the same
electrical outlet. You might experience decreased performance
while the microwave oven is operating.
If you plug your phone in with a modem or a surge protector,
plug the phone (or modem/surge protector) into a different
location. If this does not solve the problem, relocate your phone
or modem farther apart from one another, or use a different
surge protector.
Move your phone to a higher location. The phone might have
better reception in a high area.
If the other phones in your home are having the same problem,
contact your telephone service provider (charges may apply).
I experience poor sound quality when using the speakerphone.
For increased sound quality while using the speakerphone, place
