Troubleshooting
Other electronic products can cause interference to your
cordless telephone. Try installing your telephone as far
away as possible from the following electronic devices:
wireless routers, radios, radio towers, pager towers, cellular
telephones, digital telephones, intercoms, room monitors,
televisions, VCRs, personal computers, kitchen appliances,
and other cordless telephones.
If you have a headset plugged into the handset, try unplug-
ging it and firmly plugging it in again.
Microwave ovens operate on the same frequency as your
telephone. It is normal to experience static on your tele-
phone while the microwave oven is operating. Do not install
this telephone in the same outlet or near a microwave
oven.
If your telephone is plugged in with a modem or a surge
protector, plug the telephone (or modem/surge protector)
into a different location. If this solves the problem, re-locate
your telephone or modem farther apart from each other, or
use a different surge protector.
The layout of your home or office might be limiting the
operating range. Try moving the base to another location,
preferably a higher location for better reception.
