TECHNICAL INFORMATION
CHARGE/IN USE LED ON BASE KEEPS FLASHING
• Provided your phone company offers voice mail indicator service
and you subscribe to it, the CHARGE/IN USE LED flashes when
the phone is in use to indicate there is a message waiting. It stops
flashing after the message has been reviewed.
Causes of poor reception
• Aluminum siding.
• Foil backing on insulation.
• Heating ducts and other metal construction can shield radio signals.
• You are too close to appliances such as microwaves, stoves,
computers, etc.
• Atmospheric conditions, such as strong storms.
• Base is installed in the basement or lower floor of the house.
• Base is plugged into an AC outlet with other electronic devices.
• Baby monitor is using the same frequency.
• Handset battery is low.
• You are out of range of the base.
To keep your telephone working and looking good, follow these
guidelines:
• Avoid putting the phone near heating appliances and devices that
generate electrical noise (for example, motors or fluorescent lamps).
• Do not expose to direct sunlight or moisture.
• Avoid dropping the phone, and other rough treatment to the phone.
• Clean the phone with a soft cloth.
• Never use a strong cleaning agent or abrasive powder because this
will damage the finish.
• Periodically clean the charge contacts on the handset and base with
a clean pencil eraser.
• Retain the original packaging in case you need to ship the phone at a
later date.
