• Make sure both the mains power adaptor cable and telephone line cord are plugged into
the correct sockets and plugged in at the wall.
• Make sure you use all the cables and batteries (if supplied) that came in the box, not
those from a previous product.
• If you experience poor speech quality or interference, make sure the product is not
located too close to other electrical appliances.
