to change the channel.
Keep the handset away from computers, remote control
toys, wireless microphones, alarm systems, intercoms,
room monitors, fluorescent lights, and electrical
appliances.
Move the handset to another location or turn off the
source of interference.
The phone cannot be operated at a useful
distance from the base because the signal
becomes weak or noisy (handset’s range
has decreased).
Lift the base’s antenna to a vertical position.
Return the handset to the cradle and recharge the battery
pack. Replace the battery pack if necessary. (See
“Connecting, Charging, and Replacing the Battery Pack”
on Page 8).
The phone does not work or works poorly. Be sure the base’s phone line cord and AC adapter are
correctly and securely connected, and the battery pack is
charged.
The handset battery pack does not charge. Check the charging contacts on the handset and base. If
they are dirty, clean them with a pencil eraser.
Be sure the battery pack is connected correctly.
Replace the battery pack.
