Troubleshooting

•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 the person is speaking. If background noise cannot be controlled, you should terminate speakerphone operation and return to normal handset mode.

I hear other calls while using my telephone.

•Disconnect the telephone base from the telephone wall jack, and plug in a different telephone. If you still hear other calls, the problem is probably in your wiring or telephone service. Call your telephone service provider (charges may apply).

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

•Other electronic products can cause interference to your cordless telephone. Try installing your telephone as far away as possible from electronic devices such as wireless routers, or other cordless telephones.

•Move the handset closer to the base. The operating range may vary with environmental conditions and time of use. There may be places within your environment that a cordless telephone will not work well. If the problem only occurs in certain areas of your environment, you can conclude that there is nothing wrong with the telephone.

•Do not install this telephone near a microwave oven or on the same electrical outlet. You may experience decreased performance while the microwave oven is operating.

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

•Move your telephone base to a higher location. The telephone will have better reception when installed in a high area.

•If the other telephones 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).
