If you have difficulty with your telephone, please try the
following suggestions. For customer service, visit our website at
www.telephones.att.com or call 1 (800) 222-3111.
In Canada, dial 1 (866) 288-4268.
There is no dial tone.
Inspect the telephone line cord connection at the telephone wall jack.
Make sure the cord is connected properly and securely.
Inspect the handset cord connections at both ends.
If the previous suggestions do not work, disconnect the telephone base
from the telephone jack and connect to a different telephone. If there
is no dial tone on that telephone either, the problem is in your wiring or
local service. Contact your telephone service provider.
Telephone does not ring.
Make sure the RINGER switch on the side of the telephone base is not
set to OFF.
If there are other telephones on the same line, try disconnecting some
of them. Having too many telephones connected can create problems
such as low ringer volume or impaired sound quality during calls.
Difficulty storing numbers in memory.
Make sure you are pressing the correct sequence of buttons for storing
numbers (see pages 12 and 13).
If you pause for over 10 seconds when programming an entry, the
procedure will time out and you will have to begin again.
Try calling the number to be stored in memory. When the call ends,
press PROG, PAUSE/REDIAL, then a one-touch button (M1, M2 or M3),
or MEMORY and a memory location (0-9).

IN USE light does not go on.
Make sure four new AA batteries have been installed properly (see
Battery installation on page 4).
The IN USE light is flashing slowly.
Make sure that all telephones on the same line are hung up.
Inspect the telephone line cord connection at the wall jack.
Screen is blank.
Make sure the coiled handset cord is properly and securely connected
to the handset and the telephone base.
Make sure four new AA batteries are installed properly (see Battery
installation on page 4).
You must subscribe to caller ID service from your telephone service
provider to see call information on the screen.
My caller ID features are not working properly.
Caller ID is a subscription service. You must subscribe to this service
from your telephone service provider for this feature to work on your
telephone.
The caller may not be calling from an area that supports caller ID. Both
your and the caller’s telephone service providers must use equipment
which are compatible with caller ID service.
Make sure your service provides caller ID information when on a call.
This is sometimes known as caller ID with call waiting, or type II caller
ID.
Make sure you have installed four new AA batteries properly (see
Battery installation on page 4).
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 caused by DSL interference. Please
contact your DSL service provider for more information about DSL
filters.

I subscribe to a nontraditional telephone service that uses my computer to
establish connections, and my telephone doesn’t work.
Make sure your computer is powered on.
Make sure your Internet connection is working properly.
Make sure that the software is installed and running for your
nontraditional telephone service.
Make sure to plug your USB telephone adapter into a dedicated USB
port on your computer. Do not plug it into a multiple port USB hub
(USB splitter) that is not powered.
In a few rare cases, the USB port on your computer may not have
enough power. In these instances, try using a USB hub with its own
external power supply.
If you are using a firewall, it may prevent access to your nontraditional
telephone service. Contact your service provider for more information.

d’entretien pouvant apparaître dans ce guide d’utilisation. Respectez
toujours les mesures de sécurité et de sécurité de base lorsque vous
utilisez ce produit, afin de réduire les risques de blessures, d’incendie, ou

Relectez toutes l es inscriptions apparaissant sur le produit.
Évitez d’utiliser le téléphone pendant un orage. Il pourrait y avoir un faible
risque d’électrocution.

For C-UL compliance

If this equipment was approved for connection to the telephone network prior to
July 23, 2001, it complies with Part 68 of the Federal Communications Commission
(FCC) rules. If the equipment was approved after that date, it complies with the Part
68 rules and with the Technical Requirements for Connection of Equipment to the
Telephone Network adopted by the Administrative Council for Terminal Attachments
(ACTA). We are required to provide you with the following information.
Product identifier and REN information
The label on the back or bottom of this equipment contains, among other things,
an identifier indicating product approval and the Ringer Equivalence Number
(REN). This information must be provided to your telephone service provider upon
request. For equipment approved prior to July 23, 2001, the product identifier
is preceded by the phrase “FCC Reg No.” and the REN is listed separately. For
equipment approved after that date, the product identifier is preceded by “US”
and a colon (:), and the REN is encoded in the product identifier without a decimal
point as the sixth and seventh characters following the colon. For example, the
product identifier US:AAAEQ03T123XYZ indicates the REN would be 0.3.
The REN is used to determine how many devices you can connect to your
telephone line and still have them ring when you are called. In most, but not
all areas, the sum of all RENS should be five (5.0) or less. You might want to
contact your telephone service provider for more information.
Connection and use with the nationwide telephone network
The plug and jack used to connect this equipment to the premises wiring and
the telephone network must comply with the applicable part 68 rules and
technical requirements adopted by ACTA. A compliant telephone cord and
modular plug is provided with this product. It is designed to be connected to
a compatible modular wall jack that is also compliant. An RJ11 jack should
normally be used for connecting to a single line and an RJ14 jack for two
lines, see installation instructions in the user’s manual. This equipment may
not be used with coin telephone lines or with party lines. If you have specially
wired alarm dialing equipment connected to your telephone line, ensure the
connection of this equipment does not disable your alarm equipment. If you
have questions about what will disable the alarm equipment, consult your
telephone service provider or qualified installer.
Repair instructions
If this equipment is malfunctioning, it must be unplugged from the modular wall
jack until the problem has been corrected. Repairs to this telephone equipment
can only be made by the manufacturer or its authorized agents. For repair
procedures, follow the instructions outlined under the limited warranty.
Rights of the telephone service provider
If this equipment is causing harm to the telephone network, the telephone service
provider may temporarily discontinue your telephone service. The telephone service
