lowing suggestions might help.

The phone cannot be oper-
ated at a useful distance from
the base because the signal

works poorly.

CH
• Keep the handset away from computers,
remote control toys, wireless microphones,
alarm systems, intercoms, room monitors,
fluorescent lights, and electrical appli-
ances.
• Move to another location or turn off the
source of interference.
• Fully extend the base's antenna in a verti-
cal position.

metal surface.

recharge the battery.
Be sure the base's phone line cord and AC
adapter are correctly and securely connected,
and the battery is charged.

with a pencil eraser.
