TROUBLESHOOTING

We do not expect you to have any problems with your phone, but if you do, the fol-
lowing suggestions might help.

Problem

Solution

Low volume or unusual sounds.

• Someone has picked up at another

phone on the same line. Hang up
the other phone.

• Press

to turn up the handset’s

volume.

Severe noise interference.

• Return the handset to the base for

a few seconds to reset the internal
security access protection code,
then try again.

• You might be moving out of range

(see “Out of Range Indications” on
Page 23). Move the handset closer
to the base or relocate the base.

• Keep the handset away from com-

puters, remote control toys, wire-
less microphones, alarm systems,
intercoms, room monitors, fluores-
cent lights, and electrical appli-
ances.

• Move to another location or turn off

the source of interference.

The phone cannot be operated at a
useful distance from the base
because the signal becomes weak or
noisy (handset’s range has
decreased).

• Adjust the base’s antenna so it

stands straight up.

• Return the handset to the base,

and recharge the battery.

• Be sure neither antenna is touch-

ing a metal surface.
