In the event of an electrical power outage

 – 

such as from a lightning storm or power generator failure, if you experience problems 
with your HME equipment after the electricity comes on again, unplug the AC power 
adapters from their electrical outlets and wait 15 seconds, then plug them back in. 

2400MHz cordless telephone interference

 – 

If there is a 2400MHz cordless telephone nearby, interference may occur.  However, 
because the Wireless 6000 is a frequency-hopping system, this problem is unlikely.   
If it does occur, changing frequencies on the telephone may alleviate the problem.   
If not, move the phone as far as practical from the base station, or use another type 
phone.  Call HME Customer Support at 1-800-848-4468 if assistance is required.
