• When you press a button, a single
tone indicates that the phone accepts
the command. Three tones indicate
that you pressed a button in error, you
are out of range, or there is too much
interference. If there is severe inter-

closer to the base before you press

If interference is severe, the remote
keypad might lose communication
with the base and the call might dis-
connect. This does not happen often,
but if it does, return the remote key-
pad to the cradle for a few seconds.
