Before you begin

This cordless telephone operates with

the maximum power allowed by the

Federal Communications Commission

(FCC). Even so, the handset and base

can communicate over only a certain

distance — which can vary with the

locations of the base and handset, the

weather, and the construction of your

home or office. For best performance,

keep the base antenna fully upright.

If you move out of range during a

phone conversation, you might hear

noise or interference. To improve

reception, move closer to the base.

If you move out of range without

pressing OFF, your phone will be left

“off the hook.” To hang up properly,

walk back toward the telephone base,

periodically pressing OFF until the call

is disconnected.

If you receive a call while you are

out of range, the handset might not

ring — or if it does ring, the call might

not connect when you press PHONE.

Move closer to the base, then press

PHONE to answer the call.
