Where you place the phone affects the reception quality of the handset:

Away from another cordless telephone

Place the base near an AC electrical outlet and near telephone line jack

Place the base away from metal walls and metal file cabinets

CAUTION: The cordless telephone operates at a frequency that may cause interference to nearby TVs and VCRs; the base phone should not be placed near, or on top of a TV or VCR. If interference is experi- enced, moving the cordless telephone farther away from the TV or VCR will often reduce or eliminate the interference.

Answer Switch (Only/ICM)

Used to set the phone to answer and let the caller leave a message (ICM) or only play the announcement and not let the caller leave a message (ONLY).

Note: While the 2.4GHz frequency is inherently clearer, we suggest that you do not use this phone within 20 feet of a working microwave. The microwave produces frequencies in this range which may cause interference. This interference is normal for all 2.4GHz phones and should not be considered a product defect.
