TELEPHONE OPERATION

Operating Range
This cordless telephone operates within the maximum power allowed by
the Federal Communications Commission (FCC). Even so, this handset and
base can communicate over only a certain distance — which can vary with the
locations of the base and handset, the weather, and the construction of your
home or office. For best performance, keep the base antenna fully upright.
If you receive a call while you are out of range, the handset might not
ring — or if it does ring, the call might not connect when you press
TALK .
Move closer to the base, then press TALK to answer the call.
If you move out of range during a phone conversation, you might
hear noise or interference. To improve reception, move closer to the base.
If you move out of range without pressing
OFF , your phone will be left
“off the hook.” To hang up properly, walk back into range, periodically
pressing
OFF .
