Static On Line

Your phone may be located near a touch lamp, microwave, refrig- erator or other household appli- ances. Try relocating your phone to another area.

A cordless phone on your line may cause static. Try disconnecting the cordless phone. This may eliminate the problem.

Extra devices attached to the tel- phone, such as cord detanglers, CID units and answering machines may cause static. Disconnecting the devices may eliminate the problem.
