Weak or hard To hear Audio
If a 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 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.
Try adjusting the earpiece volume or the audio tone (see below).
Adjust the audio tone
During a call, open the menu and select Audio Tone. Choose one of
the three audio tone options: High Tone, Natural Tone (recommended
for hearing aid users), or Low Tone. You may have to experiment to
figure out which audio tone works best for you.
