Range

Your new phone is designed to achieve the maximum possible range by transmitting and receiving
according to the highest specifications. We have rated this phone to operate at a maximum distance
with the qualification that the range depends upon the environment in which the telephone is used.
Many factors limit range, and it would be impossible to include all the variables in our rating. The
Maximum Range rating of this phone is meant to be used as a means of comparison against other
range claims.

Telephone Line Problems

If you are having trouble with your telephone service, you must first disconnect your phone to
determine if it is the cause of your problem. If you determine that it is the cause, you must leave it
disconnected until the trouble has been corrected.

Radio Interference

Radio interference may occasionally cause buzzing and humming in your cordless Handset, or
clicking noises in the Base Unit. This interference is caused by external sources such as TV,
refrigerator, vacuum cleaner, fluorescent lighting, or electrical storm. Your unit is NOT DEFECTIVE.
If these noises continue and are too distracting, please check around your home to see what
appliances may be causing the problem. In addition, we recommend that the Base not be plugged
into a circuit that also powers a major appliance because of the potential for interference. Be certain
that the antenna on the unit is fully extended.
In the unlikely event that you consistently hear other voices or distracting transmissions on your
phone, you may be receiving radio signals from another cordless telephone or other source of
interference. If you cannot eliminate this type of interference, press the channel key to select a channel
that provides the clearest communication.
Finally, it should be noted that some cordless telephones operate at frequencies that may cause
interference to nearby TVs and VCRs. To minimise or prevent such interference, the base of the
cordless telephone should not be placed near or on top of a TV or VCR. If interference is experienced,
moving the cordless telephone farther away from the TV or VCR will often reduce or eliminate
the interference.

More Than One Cordless Telephone

If you want to use more than one cordless telephone in your home, they must operate on different
channels. Press the channel key to select a channel that provides the clearest communication.
