ADDITIONAL INFO
Problem Suggestion
I get noise, static, or
weak signal even when
I’m near the base.
• Press the CHAN button while on a call until the interference has been eliminated.
• Other electronic products can cause interference with your cordless phone. Try installing your
phone as far away from these types of electronic devices as possible: wireless routers, radios,
radio towers, pager towers, cell phones, intercoms, room monitors, televisions, personal computers,
kitchen appliances and other cordless phones.
• Microwaves operate on the same frequency as your phone. It is normal to experience static on
your phone while the microwave is running. Do not install this phone in the same outlet or near
the microwave.
• If your phone is plugged in with a modem or surge protector, plug the phone (or modem/surge
protector) into a different location. If this solves the problem, re-locate your phone or modem
farther apart from one another, or use a different surge protector.
• Relocate your phone to a higher location. The phone will likely get better reception not installed
in a low area.
• If the other phones in your home are having the issue, the problem is in your wiring or local service.
Contact your local telephone company (charges may apply.)
I hear noise in the
handset, and none of
the keys or buttons
work.
• Make sure the power cord is plugged in.
