There is
noise or
interference
during a
telephone
conversation.
My calls fade
out or cut in
and out when
I am using
the cordless
handset.
The handset may be out of range. Move it
closer to the telephone base.
Appliances or other cordless telephones
plugged into the same circuit as the telephone
base can cause interference. Try moving the
appliance or telephone base to another outlet.
Other electronic products can cause interfer-
ence to your cordless telephone. Try installing
your telephone as far away as possible from
the following electronic devices: wireless rout-
ers, radios, radio towers, pager towers, cellu-
lar telephones, digital telephones, intercoms,
room monitors, televisions, VCRs, personal
computers, kitchen appliances, and other
cordless telephones.
Microwave ovens operate on the same fre-
quency as your telephone. It is normal to
experience static on your telephone 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 loca-
tion. 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. Trying moving the
base to another location, preferably a higher
location for better reception.
Disconnect the telephone base from the mod-
ular jack and plug in a corded telephone. If
calls are still not clear, the problem is probably
in the wiring or local service. Contact your
local service company (charges may apply).
Do you have DSL service? If yes, you need to
have a DSL filter installed at every telephone
