Setting up the phone
Choose the best location
Where you place the base unit affects the reception quality of the handset.
Place the base unit:
– near a central location and on a level surface
– away from television sets and other electronic equipment, a personal
computer, or a microwave oven
– away from noise sources, such as a window by a street with heavy traffic
– away from another cordless telephone
– away from heat sources, such as radiators, airducts, and sunlight
– away from excessive moisture, extremely low temperatures, dust, mechanical
vibration, or shock
CAUTION
• Should you experience intermittent loss of audio during a conversation, try
moving closer to the base or move base unit away from other noise sources.
• The cordless telephone operates at a frequency that may cause interference to
nearby TVs and VCRs; the base unit should not be placed near or on the top of
a TV or VCR; and if interference is experienced, moving the cordless telephone
farther away from the TV or VCR will often reduce or eliminate the
interference.
