Before you begin

The cordless telephone handset operates with the maximum power allowed by the Federal Communications Commission (FCC).This handset and the tele- phone base unit can communicate over only a certain distance — which can vary with the locations of the base unit and the handset, the weather, and the construction of your home or office.

If you receive a call while you are out of range, the handset might not ring — or if it does ring, the call might not connect well when PHONE is pressed. Move closer to the base, then

press PHONE to answer the call.

If you move out of range dur- ing a telephone conversation, you might hear noise or interfer- ence from the cordless handset.

To improve reception, move clos- er to the telephone base unit.

If you move out of range without pressing OFF, your telephone will be left "off the hook" and the line will be busy. To hang up properly, walk back toward the telephone base unit while periodically pressing OFF until the call is disconnected.
