Weak or Hard to Hear Audio

If the caller’s voice sounds weak or soft, the signal might be blocked by large metal objects or walls; you might also be too far from the base, or the handset’s battery may be weak.

• Try adjusting the volume of the earpiece (see page 32) or the audio tone (see page 33).

• Try moving around while you’re on a call or moving closer to the base to see if the sound gets louder.

• Make sure the handset’s battery is fully charged.
