Try this:

1. Disconnect the power to the base .

2 . Disconnect the handset battery, and spare battery, if applicable .

3 . Wait a few minutes .

4 . Connect power to the base .

5 . Reinstall the battery(ies) .

6 . Wait for the handset to re-establish its link with the base . To be safe, allow up to one minute
