Troubleshooting
I experience poor
sound quality
when using the
speakerphone.
I hear other calls
while using my
phone.
• Other electronic products can cause
interference to your cordless phone. Try
installing your phone as far away from the
following electronic devices as possible:
television sets, VCRs, or other cordless
telephones.
• Do not install this phone near a microwave
oven or on the same electrical outlet. You
might experience decreased performance
while the microwave oven is operating.
• If you plug your phone in with a modem or a
surge protector, plug the phone (or modem/
surge protector) into a different location.
If this does not solve 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 might have better reception in a
high area.
• If the other phones in your home are having
the same problem, contact your local
telephone company (charges may apply).
• For increased sound quality while using the
speakerphone, place the handset on a flat
surface with the dial pad facing up.
• Disconnect the telephone base from the
telephone jack, and plug in a different
telephone. If you still hear other calls, call
your local telephone company.
