TECHNICAL INFORMATION
This cordless phone uses radio frequencies to allow mobility. There are certain difficulties in
using radio frequencies with a cordless telephone. While these are normal, the following could
affect the operation of your system.
NOISE: Electric pulse noise is present in most homes at one time or another. This noise is
most intense during electrical storms. Certain kinds of electric equipment such as light
dimmers, fluorescent bulbs, motors, and fans also generate noise pulses. Because radio
frequencies are susceptible to these noise pulses, you may occasionally hear them in your
handset. Generally, they are minor annoyances and should not be interpreted as defects in
your system.
RANGE: Because radio frequencies are used, location of the base unit can affect operating
range. Try several locations in your home or business and pick the one that gives you the
clearest signal.
INTERFERENCE: Some electronic devices operate in and/or generate interference near the
operating frequencies of your cordless telephone. While several protection circuits are used to
prevent unwanted signals, there may be periods when these unwanted signals cause
interference. If interference occurs frequently, it can be minimized or eliminated by lowering
the height of your base antenna or by relocating the base unit. You can check for interference
before selecting the final base unit location by plugging in the phone.
