Technical Information
Cordless telephones use radio frequencies to allow mobility. This affects the
performance of your unit.
1.NOISE
Electrical pulse noise is present in most homes at one time or another. Ttis is most
intense during electrical storms. Certain kinds of electrical equipment, such as light
dimmers, fluorescent bulbs, motors, fans, etc., also generate Pulse noise.
Because radio frequencies are susceptible to this, you may on occasion hear pulse
noise through the handset. This is usually only a minor annoyance and should not be
interpreted as a defect of the unit.
2. RANGE
Because radio frequencies are used, the location of the base station can affect the
operating range of the unit. Try several locations and choose the one that gives the
clearest signal to the handset. (Turning in a circle while holding the handset may also
increase the operating range.)
3. INTERFERENCE
Electronic circuits activate a relay to connect the unit to your telephone line. These
electronic circuits operate in the radio frequency spectrum. While several protection
circuits are used to prevent unwanted signals, there may be periods when these
unwanted signals enter the base station. You may hear click or hear the relay activate
when you are not using the cordless handset. If this occurs frequently, you can minimize
or eliminate the problem by lowering the height of the base station or relocating the
base station. It may also be helpful to change the operating channel andlor the security
code setting.
