Weak or Hard To Hear Audio
If a caller’s voice sounds weak or soft, the signal might be blocked by
large metal objects or walls; you might also be too far from the base, or the
handset’s battery may be weak.
Try moving around while you’re on a call or moving closer to the base
to see if the sound gets louder.
Make sure the handset’s battery is fully charged.
Try adjusting the volume of the earpiece or the audio tone (see below).
Adjust the audio tone
During a call, press
TONe
to cycle through the three audio tone options:
High Tone
,
Natural Tone
(recommended for hearing aid users), or
Low
Tone
. (The tone setting appears in the display as you do this.) You may
have to experiment to figure out which audio tone works best for you.
