television sets, VCRs, or other cordless telephones.

decreased performance while the microwave oven is

 

operating.

If you plug your phone in with a modem or a surge

 

protector, plug the phone (or modem/surge protector)

 

into a different location. If this does not 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

 

might have better reception in a high area.

If the other phones in your home are having the same

 

problem, contact your telephone service provider

 

(charges may apply).
