causing the problem. In addition, we recommend
that the base not be plugged into a circuit that
also powers a major appliance because of the
potential for interference. Be certain that the
antenna on the unit is fully extended when needed.
In the unlikely event that you consistently hear
other voices or distracting transmissions on your
phone, you may be receiving radio signals from
another cordless telephone or other source of
interference. If you cannot eliminate this type of
interference, you need to change to a different
channel.
Finally, it should be noted that some cordless
telephones operate at frequencies that may cause
interference to nearby TVs and VCRs. To minimize or
prevent such interference, the base of the cordless
telephone should not be placed near or on top of a
TV or VCR. If interference is experienced, moving
the cordless telephone farther away from the TV or
VCR will often reduce or eliminate the interference.
More Than One Cordless Telephone
If you want to use more than one cordless
telephone in your home, they must operate on
different channels. Press the channel key to select a
channel that provides the clearest communication.
Cordless Telephone Privacy
Cordless telephones are radio devices.
Communications between the handset and base of
your cordless telephone are accomplished by means
of radio waves which are broadcasted over the open
airways. Because of the inherent physical properties
of radio waves, your communications can be
received by radio receiving devices other than your
own cordless telephone unit. Consequently, any
communications using your cordless telephone may
not be private.
