Troubleshooting
You may be able to improve the performance
of your cordless phone by installing your
new telephone base as far as possible from
any other existing cordless telephone system
that may already be installed.
Other electronic products can cause
interference to your cordless phone. Try
installing your phone as far away from the
following electronic devices as possible:
television sets, VCRs, or other cordless
telephones.
Do not install this phone near a microwave
oven or on the same electrical outlet. You
may experience decreased performance
while the microwave oven is operating.
If your phone is plugged in with a modem
or a surge protector, plug the phone (or
modem/surge protector) into a different
location. If this solves the problem, re-locate
your phone or modem farther apart from one
another, or use a different surge protector.
Relocate your phone to a higher location.
The phone will likely have better reception
when not installed in a low area.
If the other phones in your home are having
the same problem, the problem is in your
wiring or local service. Contact your local
telephone company (charges may apply).
