About Cordless Phone Performance
Your Cobra
Intenna
cordless phone uses radio transmission to communicate
between the base and handset. It is thus subject to occasional interferenceÑstatic
or buzzing noises, for example. These conditions may be caused by electrical
motors on household appliances, ßuorescent lights, electrical storms and other
sources.
These steps will enhance the maximum performance of your new phone:
• Change channels by pressing the CHANNELbutton on the handset if you
experience interference.
• Don’t cover the upper section of the cordless handset with your hand (see
diagram below). This may block the internal antenna located at the top of
the handset, possibly reducing the phoneÕs range and audio clarity. Always
hold the handset at the middle or close to the bottom
• Avoid resting the handset on your shoulder during conversations; this may
also block the performance of the internal antenna.
• Avoid plugging your phone’s power cord into an active AC outlet that also
provides power for a major appliance or for charging units a for cordless
appliances (vacuums, screwdrivers, etc.) or other electronic devices.
Hold the cordless
handset at the middle
or bottom area of your
phone for best
performance and range.
