Call Waiting disconnects answering system

Answering System senses a fluctuation in line voltage caused by the Call Waiting signal and disconnects.

Contact Local Telephone Company for possible solutions.

External Antennas

Additional external antennas are not recommended for the following reasons:

·AT&T cordless telephones are designed to ensure that the power output of the set does not exceed standards set by the FCC. The maximum power output allowed is .1 watt (or 100 milliwatts).

·Any attachment to a cordless telephone which increases the power output is in violation of FCC regulations.

·Once the product is opened in order to connect the external antenna, the warranty is voided.

Hearing Aid Compatibility

This product is compatible with inductively coupled hearing aids.

Use of any other amplification devices near or on the cordless product may produce squealing, whistling, or feedback.

·If you use a hearing aid in only one ear, cradle the handset to the other ear to try to avoid microphone feedback.

·Remove or turn off the hearing aid when using the handset.

·Use a different extension telephone if you are unable to use the product without assistance of a hearing aid.

Information regarding inductively coupled hearing aids:

·This type of hearing aid is usually equipped with a T (telephone ) switch, specifically installed for improved amplification with telephone use.

·Flip the T switch to the telephone position to turn off the hearing aid microphone and turn on the inductive pickup coil that receives voice signals through a magnetic field generated by some telephone handset.

·Not all telephones generate a sufficiently strong magnetic field to couple to these hearing aids.

·Those that do are labelled Hearing Aid Compatible by AT&T.
