Helpful Installation Tips
Feedback
If an intercom station appears to be exhibiting feedback noise,
check the following for potential causes.
• Microphone - Remove the backplate. The microphone and
holder are located in the bottom-left corner. Ensure that the
microphone is pushed fully into the black rubber holder so that
the face of it is flat against the rubber.
• Speaker - Ensure that the felt is secured around the speaker.
