I get noise, static,

•

Other cordless phones and 802..11 wireless routers that are used for home computer networks both

or weak signal even

 

use internal radios to communicate.. The radios may interfere with one another.. You can improve the

when I’m near the

 

performance of your cordless phones and your router by:

 

a.

positioning your new phone as far away as possible from any other existing cordless telephone

base..

 

 

 

system that is already installed in your home to avoid the two systems interfering with each other..

 

 

 

 

 

b. positioning your telephone base as far as possible from your router, computer or any other

 

 

 

computer devices..

 

 

c.

selecting channels four through 10 for your router (refer to your router’s user manual for more

 

 

 

information)..

 

 

d. If you still have problems with the phone or the router, make sure the handset is ON and press

 

 

 

CHAN until the performance improves..

 

• Press the CHAN button while on a call until the interference has been eliminated..

 

• Other electronic products can cause interference with your cordless phone.. Try installing your phone

 

 

as far away from these types of electronic devices as possible: wireless routers, radios, radio towers,

 

 

pager towers, cell phones, intercoms, room monitors, televisions, personal computers, kitchen

 

 

appliances and other cordless phones..

 

•

Microwaves operate on the same frequency as your phone.. It is normal to experience static on

 

 

your phone while the microwave is running.. Do not install this phone in the same outlet or near the

 

 

microwave..

 

•

If your phone is plugged in with a modem or surge protector, plug the phone (or modem/surge

 

 

protector) into a different location.. If this solves the problem, re-locate your phone or modem farther

 

 

apart from one another, or use a different surge protector..

 

• Relocate your phone to a higher location.. The phone will likely get better reception not installed in

 

 

a low area..

 

• If the other phones in your home are having the issue, the problem is in your wiring or local service..

 

 

Contact your local telephone company (charges may apply..)

I hear other calls while

•

Disconnect your base unit from the telephone jack, and plug in a regular telephone.. If you
