Troubleshooting

Appendix B

I hear other calls while using my phone.

•Do not install this phone near a microwave oven or on the same electrical outlet. You may experience decreased performance while the microwave oven is operating.

•If your phone is plugged in with a modem or a surge protector, plug the phone (or modem/surge protector) into a different location. If this doesn't solve the problem, re-locate your phone or modem farther apart from one another, or use a different surge protector.

•Relocate your phone to a higher location. The phone will likely have better reception when not installed in a low area.

•If the other phones in your home are having the same problem, the problem is in your wiring or local service. Contact your local telephone company (charges may apply).

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

Iexperience poor sound quality when using the speakerphone.

•For increased sound quality while using the speakerphone, place the handset on a flat surface with the dial pad facing up.
