Troubleshooting

My calls cut in and out while I’m using my cordless handset.

•Other electronic products such as HAM radios and other DECT phones can cause interference to your cordless telephone. Try installing your telephone as far away as possible from these types of electronic devices.

•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 you plug your phone in with a modem or surge protector, plug the phone (or modem/surge protector) into a different location. If this doesn’t solve the problem, relocate your phone or modem farther apart from one another, or use a different surge protector.

•Relocate your telephone base to a higher location. The phone may have better reception when installed in a high area.

•Disconnect the telephone base from the telephone wall jack and plug in a working telephone. If the other phones in your home are having the same problem, the problem is in your wiring or telephone service. Contact your telephone service provider (charges may apply).

•Excessive background noise will cause a speakerphone to fade in and out. Try controlling the background noise by turning off any audio devices near the speakerphone. Also, try to avoid interrupting the person at the other end of the conversation while they are speaking. If background noise cannot be controlled, you should stop speakerphone operation and return to normal handset mode.

•When using a speakerphone, controlling background noise in your environment is essential. While you are listening to your party, press MUTE/DELETE to temporarily turn your microphone off. When it is your turn to speak, remember to press MUTE/DELETE to turn the microphone on.
