Troubleshooting

I get noise, static, or weak signals even when I’m near the telephone base.

If you subscribe to high-speed Internet service (digital subscriber line - DSL) through your telephone line, you must install a DSL filter between the telephone line cord and the telephone wall jack (see page 5). The filter prevents noise and caller ID problems as a result of DSL interference. Please contact your DSL service provider for more information about DSL filters.

You may be able to improve the performance of your cordless phone by installing your new telephone base as far as possible from any other existing cordless telephone system that may already be installed.

Other electronic products can cause interference to your cordless phone. Try installing your phone as far away from the following electronic devices as possible: television sets, VCRs, or other cordless telephones.

Do not install this phone near a microwave oven or on the same electrical outlet. You might experience 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, relocate 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).

I experience 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.

I hear other calls while using my phone.

Disconnect the telephone base from the telephone jack, and plug in a different telephone. If you still hear other calls, call your telephone service provider.

The telephone does not ring when there is an incoming call.

Make sure that the ringer is not off. Refer to Ringer volume on page 24 in this user’s manual.

Make sure you plug in the telephone line cord securely into the telephone base and the telephone jack. Make sure you plug in the power cord securely.
