Some issues may simply be resolved by disconnecting the power to the unit. In such instances the power to the main base station should be switched off and battery pack in the handset should also be removed for about 20 minutes. After 20 minutes, replace the battery pack and reconnect everything to determine if this has resolved the issue.
