NOTE
Some cordless telephones operate at frequencies that may cause or receive interference with
nearby TVs, microwave ovens, and VCRs. To minimize or prevent such interference, the base of the
cordless telephone should not be placed near or on top of a TV, microwave ovens, or VCR. If such
interference continues, move the cordless telephone farther away from these appliances.
Certain other communications devices may also use the 1.9 GHz frequency for communication, and,
if not properly set, these devices may interfere with each other and/or your new telephone. If you
are concerned with interference, please refer to the owner's manual for these devices on how to
properly set channels to avoid interference. Typical devices that may use the 1.9 GHz frequency for
communication include wireless audio/video senders, wireless computer networks, multi-handset
cordless telephone systems, and some long-range cordless telephone systems.
