Installing a line filter or DSL filter

Sometimes, broadband Internet services that use the telephone line

can interfere with phones. One of these services−DSL−often causes

static on telephones. A DSL filter or telephone line filter usually solves

this problem. The technician who installed your DSL service might

have left some filters for you; if not, call your DSL provider or look in

any electronics store.
Plug the DSL filter into the telephone wall jack and plug your phone’s

base into the filter. Make a test call to make sure the noise is gone.

Do you use a T-Coil hearing aid?

If you have a hearing aid equipped with a telecoil (T-coil) feature, the

interaction between the hearing aid and digital cordless phones can

cause noise in the handset. If you have a T-coil hearing aid and you have
problems with noise on the line, try turning on

T-coil

mode. Open the

menu. Select

Handset Setup

,

then select

T-coil

.

Using T-coil mode can shorten the handset’s talk time; make sure to

watch the battery status and keep the battery charged.

Liquid damage

Moisture and liquid can damage your cordless phone. If the exterior

housing of the handset or base is exposed to moisture or liquid, wipe

off the liquid, and use as normal. If moisture or liquid is inside the

plastic housing (i.e. liquid can be heard in the phone or liquid has

entered the handset battery compartment or vent openings on the

base), follow these steps:
