TROUBLE-SHOOTING GUIDE
Static On Line
• Interference From
Household Appliances
—Your Clarity phone may be located near
a touch lamp, microwave or refrigerator
which may cause interference. Relocating
your phone to another area may eliminate
the problem.
—A cordless phone on your phone line
may also cause static. Try disconnecting
your cordless phone for several days. This
may eliminate the problem.
— Disconnect any extra devices which
may be attached to the phone. Extra
devices may include cord detangler’s,
caller ID units, and answering machines.
•␣ Interference From
Malfunctioning, Frayed Or
Poorly Connected
Telephone Cords
—Check your phone cords and connec-
tions. Try interchanging cords with another
phone to see if the problem is eliminated.
Replace any defective equipment.
Feedback Problems.
•␣ Feedback Occurs When
Handset Is Set Down
—Avoid setting receiver on a hard surface
or attach a foam receiver pad to earpiece
of phone. You can also lay the receiver on
its side. This will eliminate feedback also.
Transmission Problems
•␣ The Person On The Other
End Cannot Hear You
—Too many phones or phone devices on
the line may effect your phone’s transmis-
sion. As a guideline, more than five (5)
phones or phone devices may overload
the phone line. Disconnect one (1) or two
(2) of the devices to see if that eliminates
the problem. If not, contact your local
phone company for load guidelines.
—You may not be speaking directly into
the transmitter. Always speak directly
into the mouthpiece in your normal tone
of voice.
