Troubleshooting
There is interference during a telephone conversation.
My calls fade out when I am using the cordless handset.
The handset may be out of range. Move it closer to the telephone base.
If you subscribe to high-speed Internet service (DSL - digital subscriber line) through
your telephone line, you must install a DSL filter between the telephone line cord and
the telephone wall jack. The filter prevents noise and caller ID problems caused by DSL
interference. Contact your DSL service provider for more information about DSL filters.
Appliances or other cordless telephones plugged into the same circuit as the telephone base
can cause interference. Try moving the appliance or telephone base to another outlet.
Other electronic products such as HAM radios and other DECT phones can cause
interference with your cordless phone. Try installing your phone as far away as possible
from these types of electronic devices.
If your telephone is plugged in with a modem or a surge protector, plug the telephone (or
modem/surge protector) into a different location. If this doesn’t solve the problem, relocate
your telephone or modem farther apart from each other, or use a different surge protector.
The location of your telephone base can impact the performance of your cordless phone.
For better reception, install the telephone base in a centralized location within your home or
office, away from walls or other obstructions. In many environments, elevating the telephone
base improves overall performance.
Disconnect the telephone base from the telephone wall jack and plug in a corded telephone.
If calls are still not clear, the problem is probably in the wiring or telephone service. Contact
your telephone service provider (charges may apply).
If other telephones in your home are having the same problem, the problem is in the wiring or
telephone service. Contact your telephone service provider (charges may apply).
I get noise, static, or weak signals even when I’m near the telephone base.
If you subscribe to high-speed Internet service (DSL - digital subscriber line) through
your telephone line, you must install a DSL filter between the telephone line cord and
the telephone wall jack. The filter prevents noise and caller ID problems caused by
DSL interference. Contact your DSL service provider for more information about DSL filters.
You may be able to improve the performance of your cordless phone by installing your new
telephone base as far as possible from any other existing cordless telephone system that
may already be installed.
Other electronic products such as HAM radios and other DECT phones can cause
interference with your cordless phone. Try installing your phone as far away as possible
from these types of electronic devices.
Do not install this phone near a microwave oven or on the same electrical outlet. You may
experience decreased performance while the microwave oven is operating.
If you plug your phone in with a modem or a surge protector, plug the phone (or modem/
surge protector) into a different location. If this does not solve the problem, relocate your
phone or modem farther apart from one another, or use a different surge protector.
Relocate your phone to a higher location. The phone may have better reception in a high area.
If other phones in your home are having the same problem, contact your telephone service
provider (charges may apply).
