Do you have a T-Coil hearing aid?
If you have a hearing aid equipped with a telecoil (T-coil) feature, the interaction between the hearing aid and digital cordless phones can cause noise in the handset. If you have a T-coil hearing aid and you have problems with noise on the line, try turning on T-coilmode. Open the menu. Select Handset Setup, then select T-coil.
Using T-coil mode can shorten the handset's talk time; make sure to watch your battery status and keep the battery charged.

Weak or Hard To Hear Audio

If a caller’s voice sounds weak or soft, the signal might be blocked by large metal objects or walls; you might also be too far from the base, or the handset’s battery may be weak.

Try moving around while you’re on a call or moving closer to the base to see if the sound gets louder.

Make sure the handset’s battery is fully charged.

Try adjusting the volume of the earpiece or the audio tone (see below).

Adjust the audio tone

During a call, press Tone to cycle through the three audio tone options: High Tone, Natural Tone (recommended for hearing aid users), or Low Tone. (The tone setting appears in the display as you do this.) You may have to experiment to figure out which audio tone works best for you.

Noise or Static onO The Line

The most common cause of noise or static on a cordless phone is interference. Here are some common household sources of interference:

electrical appliances, especially microwave ovens

computer equipment, especially wireless LAN equipment and DSL modems

radio-based wireless devices, such as room monitors, wireless

controllers, or wireless headphones or speakers

large florescent light fixtures (especially if they give off a buzzing noise)
