Move the handset closer to the base or
relocate the base.
Keep the handset away from computers,
remote controlled toys, wireless micro-
phones, alarm systems, intercoms, room
monitors, fluorescent lights, and electrical
appliances.
Move to another location or turn off the

Adjust the base's antenna so it stands
straight up.
Be sure neither antenna is touching a
metal surface.
Return the handset to the cradle, and re-
