MAINTENANCE
1. Your phone should be situated away from heat sources such as radiators,
heaters, stoves or any other appliance that produces heat.
2. Use a slightly damp cloth to clean the plastic cabinet. A mild soap will
help to remove grease or oil. Never use polish, solvents, abrasives or
strong detergents since these can damage the finish.
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.
