If there is severe interference, move closer to the base before you press any key. If interference is severe,

the keypad might lose communication with the base and the call might be disconnected.

This does not happen often, but if it does, return the keypad to the cradle for a few seconds.

Important: Do not answer incoming calls until Caller ID information is observed

           in the LCD display.

CHAN.

 Button to switch to

to another channel until you have good reception. (See Figure 1)
