Maintenance & Troubleshooting

Battery Care: Charge handsets fully before first use and recharge after each full discharge cycle. Avoid overcharging by unplugging once the indicator shows a full charge.

Signal Interference: If you experience dropped calls, move the base unit away from large metal objects or microwave ovens. Ensure no other 2.4 GHz devices (Wi‑Fi routers, cordless phones) are operating on the same channel.

Answering Machine Issues: If recorded messages cannot be played back, check that the handset’s volume is turned up and that the speaker is not obstructed. Reset the system by powering off the base unit for 30 seconds before restarting.

Call Blocking Not Working: Verify that the block list is correctly entered. Reboot the base unit to refresh settings if problems persist.
