• Other electronic products can cause interference with your cordless phone Try installing
your phone as far away from these types of electronic devices as possible: wireless routers,
radios, radio towers, pager towers, cell phones, intercoms, room monitors, televisions, personal
computers, kitchen appliances and other cordless phones
• Microwaves operate on the same frequency as your phone It is normal to experience static
on your phone while the microwave is running Do not install this phone in the same outlet or
near the microwave
• If your phone is plugged in with a modem or surge protector, plug the phone (or modem/surge
protector) into a different location If this solves the problem, re-locate your phone or modem
farther apart from one another, or use a different surge protector
• Relocate your phone to a higher location The phone will likely get better reception not installed
in a low area
• If the other phones in your home are having the issue, the problem is in your wiring or local
service Contact your local telephone company (charges may apply )
