•Other electronic products can cause interference to your cordless telephone. Try installing your telephone as far away as possible from the following electronic devices: wireless routers, radios, radio towers, pager towers, cellular telephones, digital telephones, intercoms, room monitors, televisions, VCRs, personal computers, kitchen appliances, and other cordless telephones.

•If you have a headset plugged into the handset, try unplug- ging it and firmly plugging it in again.

•Microwave ovens operate on the same frequency as your telephone. It is normal to experience static on your tele- phone while the microwave oven is operating. Do not install this telephone in the same outlet or near a microwave oven.

•If your telephone is plugged in with a modem or a surge protector, plug the telephone (or modem/surge protector) into a different location. If this solves the problem, re-locate your telephone or modem farther apart from each other, or use a different surge protector.

•The layout of your home or office might be limiting the operating range. Try moving the base to another location, preferably a higher location for better reception.
