Traits of Cordless Telephones
A. Cordless telephones offer convenience and mobility during telephone conversations. The
use of cordless telephones is dependent upon the availability of DC power. Any disruption
of electrical power at your location will prevent the placing or receiving of telephone calls.
It is recommended that a cordless telephone should not be installed as the only phone at
your location.
B. The usable range of the cordless handset away from the base is dependent upon many
factors. The telephone base is like a radio transmitter in that it transmits telephone line
signals via radio waves to the handset. Therefore, the location of the base is important in
order to maximize the usable range. For example, installing the base on the second floor, in
some locations, will provide longer range than a ground floor installation. Pick a location
that gives you the clearest signal. The following can adversely affect usable range:
aluminum siding
insulation with foil backing
any metal construction which could shield radio signals.
Atmospheric conditions also play an important role in the performance of your cordless
telephone.
Interference can be caused by placing the base near:
fluorescent lights
appliances that generate electrical noise, including:
microwaves
televisions
VCR's
baby monitors
computers
C. Always keep the base antenna fully upright. C. Always keep the base antenna fully upright.
D. For maximum performance, always keep the battery pack fully charged.
E. Plug your phone directly into an outlet, not an extension cord.

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