Radio Interference
Radio interference may occasionally cause buzzing and humming in your cordless
handset, or clicking noises in the base. This interference is caused by an external
source such as a TV, refrigerator, vacuum cleaner, fluorescent lighting, or electrical
storm. Your unit is NOT DEFECTIVE. If these noises continue and are too distracting,
please check around your home to see what appliances may be causing the problem.
In addition, we recommend that the base not be plugged into a circuit that also
powers a major appliance because of the potential for interference. Be certain the
antenna is kept in the vertical position.
In the unlikely event that you consistently hear other voices or distracting
transmissions on your phone, you may be receiving radio signals from another
cordless telephone or other source of interference. If you cannot eliminate this type of
interference, you need to change to a different channel.
Finally, it should be noted that some cordless telephones operate at frequencies that
may cause interference to nearby TVs and VCRs. To minimize or prevent such
interference, the base of the cordless telephone should not be placed near or on top
of a TV or VCR. If interference is experienced, moving the cordless telephone farther
away from the TV or VCR will often reduce or eliminate the interference.
More Than One Cordless Telephone
If you want to use more than one cordless telephone in your home, they must
operate on different channels. Press the channel key to select a channel that provides
the clearest communication.
