Problem

is displayed.

Noise is heard, sound cuts in and out.

Cause/solution

RThe handset is too far from the base unit. Move closer.

RActivating one touch eco mode reduces the range of the base unit in standby mode. If required, turn eco mode off (page 15).

RYou are using the handset or base unit in an area with high electrical interference. Re-position the base unit and use the handset away from sources of interference.

RIf you use a DSL/ADSL service, we recommend connecting a filter (contact your DSL/ADSL service provider) to the telephone line between the base unit and the telephone line socket. Contact your DSL/ADSL provider for details.

RYou have registered a handset that is not recommended (page 4). The clearest sound quality is only possible by registering the recommended handset.
