In case of difficulty

There is noise or interference during a telephone conversation.

My calls fade out or cut in and out when I am using the cordless handset.

The handset may be out of range. Move it closer to the telephone base.

Appliances or other cordless telephones plugged into the same circuit as the telephone base can cause interference. Try moving the appliance or telephone base to another outlet.

Other electronic products can cause interfer- ence to your cordless telephone. Try installing your telephone as far away as possible from the following electronic devices: wireless rout- ers, radios, radio towers, pager towers, cellu- lar telephones, digital telephones, intercoms, room monitors, televisions, VCRs, personal computers, kitchen appliances, and other cordless telephones.

Microwave ovens operate on the same fre- quency as your telephone. It is normal to experience static on your telephone while the microwave oven is operating. Do not install this telephone in the same outlet or near a microwave oven.

If your telephone is plugged in with a modem or a surge protector, plug the telephone (or modem/surge protector) into a different loca- tion. If this solves the problem, re-locate your telephone or modem farther apart from each other, or use a different surge protector.

The layout of your home or office might be limiting the operating range. Trying moving the base to another location, preferably a higher location for better reception.

Disconnect the telephone base from the mod- ular jack and plug in a corded telephone. If calls are still not clear, the problem is probably in the wiring or local service. Contact your local service company (charges may apply).

Do you have DSL service? If yes, you need to have a DSL filter installed at every telephone
