Troubleshooting
My console isn’t performing normally.
Make sure you plug the power cord securely into the console. Plug the
power adapter into a different working electrical outlet without a wall switch.
Reset the console. Unplug the electrical power and remove all the batteries.
Wait 15 seconds, then plug the power adaptor back in and install the
batteries again. Allow up to one minute for the console to reset.
Other electronic products such as HAM radios and other DECT phones, can
cause interference with your cordless phone. Try installing your phone as far
away as possible from these types of electronic devices.
I get noise, static, or weak signals even when I’m near the console.
If you subscribe to high-speed Internet service (DSL - digital subscriber line)
through your telephone lines, you must install a DSL filter between each
telephone line cord and telephone wall jack. The filter prevents noise and
caller ID problems as a result of DSL interference. Please contact your DSL
service provider for more information about DSL filters.
You may be able to improve the performance of your console by installing
your new console as far as possible from any other existing corded or
cordless telephone system that may already be installed.
Other electronic products such as HAM radios and other DECT phones, can
cause interference with your cordless phone. Try installing your phone as far
away as possible from these types of electronic devices.
Do not install this console near a microwave oven or on the same electrical
outlet. You might experience decreased performance while the microwave
oven is operating.
If you plug your telephone in with a modem or a surge protector, plug the
console (or modem/surge protector) into a different location. If this does not
solve the problem, relocate your console or modem farther apart from one
another, or use a different surge protector.
Relocate your telephone to a higher location. The telephone might have
better reception in a high area.
If the other telephones in your building are having the same problem, contact
your telephone service provider.
I experience poor sound quality when using the speakerphone.
For increased sound quality while using the telephone speakerphone, place
the console on a flat surface.
Excessive background noise will cause a speakerphone to fade in and out.
Try controlling the background noise by turning off any audio devices near
the speakerphone. Also, try to avoid interrupting the person at the other end
of the conversation while they are speaking. If background noise cannot be
controlled, you should stop speakerphone operation and return to normal
corded handset mode.
