English version
This cordless phone uses radio frequencies to allow mobility. There are certain
difficulties in using radio frequencies with a 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 minor annoyances and
should not be interpreted as defects 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 lowering the height of your base antenna or by relocating
the base unit. You can check for interference before selecting the final base unit
location by plugging in the phone.
