TECHNICAL
INFORMATION
This
DECT
6.0
cordless
phone
uses
radio
frequencies
to
allow
mobility.
There
are
certain
difficulties
in
using
radio
frequencies
with
a
DECT
6.0
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
a
minor
annoyance
and
should
not
be
interpreted
as
a
defect
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
relocating
the
base
unit.
You
can
check
for
interference
before
selecting
the
final
base
unit
location
by
plugging
in
the
phone.
Improving
Cordless
Reception:
Follow
these
guidelines
to
improve
cordless
sound
quality:
•
It
is
closest
to
the
center
of
your
home
or
office.
This
will
improve
the
operating
range
of
the
unit.
•
Keep
the
base
unit
away
from
electrical
equipment.
Radio
Frequency
Interference
(RFI)
is
sometimes
generated
by
these
appliances,
which
can
cause
degradation
in
cordless
reception.
•
Keep
the
handset
batteries
charged
as
much
as
possible.
Weak
handset
batteries
can
limit
the
range
of
cordless
operation.
