IN CASE OF DIFFICULTY

If you are having problems with your telephone, try the following suggestion.

NO DIAL TONE

2. Try another modular jack within your home which you know to be working properly.

CALLS CANNOT BE DIALED OR DIALED SLOWLY

Check to make sure that the DIAL MODE switch is in the correct position for the type of service available in your area.
