SOURCE: phone says searching
The battery may be weak. Or it is too far from the base. Try exchanging the two. take the handset near the base and see if it will link.
SOURCE: Base station and units all say 'searching'
You may need to register your handset to the base.
Normally ,there is a advanced setting ,register handset. At the same time, press and hold "page" key on your base 4 to 5 second , there is be a registation success tone from handset. You can register all of your handset ,one by one. Some model need to input register code, normally ,it is 1234 , or 0000.

Unusual problem on a new phone. Could possibly be radio frequency interference close by.
Some cordless phones operate on the same frequencies as in-home wireless networks. I believe this is the 2.8 megahertz frequency. The phones and the wireless networks can interfere with each other.
Most newer cordless phones are higher frequency (5.8 megahertz?). Wireless networks shouldn't interfere with those phones, but there could be other things that could (e.g., transformers on power poles).
If the phones are new, you might consider taking them back and getting another model.
