Basic Operation
Operating Range
This cordless telephone operates within the maximum power allowed by the
Federal Communications Commission (FCC). Even so, this 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.
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.
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 into range, periodically pressing
OFF
.
