Before you begin
This cordless telephone operates with
the maximum power allowed by the
Federal Communications Commission
(FCC). Even so, this handset and
EP5962 base can communicate over
only a certain distance — which can
vary with the locations of the base and
handset, the weather, and the con-
struction of your home or office.
If you receive a call while you are out
of range, the handset might not ring
— or if it does ring, the call might not
connect when you press LINE 1 or
LINE 2. Move closer to the base, then
press LINE 1 or LINE 2 to answer the
call.
If you move out of range during a
phone conversation, you might hear
noise or interference. To improve
reception, move closer to the base.
If you move out of range without
pressingOFF, your phone will be left
“off the hook.” To hang up properly,
walk back toward the telephone base,
periodically pressing OFF until the call
is disconnected.
