TELEPHONE OPERATION

PROBLEM

If you hear noise or interference when using the phone:

SOLUTION

Make sure the base antenna is fully upright.

You may be out of range. Move closer to the base.

Press and release to change to another of the 30 channels available. If noise is exceptionally loud,move closer to the base before changing channels.

Household appliances plugged into the same circuit as the base can sometimes cause interference. Try moving the appliance or the base to another outlet.

Using the handset near household appliances (microwaves,computers, television,stereos,etc.) can sometimes cause interference. Move away from appliances while using the handset.

The layout of your home or office might be limiting the operating range. Try moving the base to another location, preferably on an upper floor.

If the buttons don’t work,try placing the handset in the base for at least 15 seconds.

PROBLEM

If you hear other calls while using your phone:

SOLUTION

Press to change to another channel.

Disconnect the base from the modular jack and plug in a corded telephone. If you still hear other calls,the problem is probably in your wiring or local service. Call your local telephone service company.
