Important Electrical Considerations
Unplug all electrical appliances when you know an electrical storm is approaching. Lightning can pass through your household wiring and damage any device connected to it. The XC 320 is no exception.
NOTE: Please do not attempt to unplug any appliance during an electrical storm.
Range
The XC 320 is designed to achieve the maximum possible range by transmitting and receiving according to the highest specifications. We have rated this phone to operate at a maximum distance with the qualification that the range depends upon the environment in which the telephone is used. Many factors limit range, and it would be impossible to include all the variables in our rating. The Maximum Range rating of the XC 320 is meant to be used as a means of comparison against other range claims.
Radio Interference
Radio interference may occasionally cause buzzing and humming in your cordless Handset, or clicking noises in the Base Unit. This interference is caused by external sources such as TV, refrigerator, vacuum cleaner, fluorescent lighting, or electrical storm. Your unit is NOT DEFECTIVE. If these noises continue and are too distracting, please check around your home to see what appliances may be causing the problem. In addition, we recommend that the base not be plugged into a circuit that also powers a major appliance because of the potential for interference. Be certain that the antenna on the unit is fully extended when needed.
In the unlikely event that you consistently hear other voices or distracting transmissions on your XC 320, you may be receiving radio signals from another cordless telephone or other source of interference. If you cannot
eliminate this type of interference, you need to change the channel. Press CHANNELto select the best channel with no interference.
More Than One Cordless Telephone
If you wish to use more than one cordless telephone in your house, they must operate on different channels. Press CHANNELto select one that provides the clearest communications.
