Troubleshooting
Do not install this phone near a microwave oven or on the same
electrical outlet. You may experience decreased performance
while the microwave oven is operating.
If you plug your phone in with a modem or a surge protector,
plug the phone (or modem/surge protector) into a different
location. If this does not solve the problem, relocate your phone
or modem farther apart from one another, or use a different
surge protector.
Move your phone to a higher location. The phone may have
better reception in a high area.
If other phones in your home are having the same problem,
contact your telephone service provider (charges may apply).
I experience poor sound quality when using the handset
speakerphone.
For increased sound quality while using the handset
speakerphone, place the handset on a flat surface with the dial
pad facing up.
When using a speakerphone, controlling background noise in
your environment is essential. While you are listening to your
party, press
MUTE
/
DELETE
to temporarily turn your microphone
off. When it is your turn to speak, remember to press
MUTE
/
DELETE
again to turn the microphone on.
Excessive background noise will cause a speakerphone to fade
in and out. Try controlling the background noise by turning off
and audio devices near the speakerphone. Also, try to avoid
interrupting the person at the other end of the conversation
while they are speaking. If background noise cannot be
controlled, you should terminate speakerphone operation and
return to normal handset mode.
My cordless handset does not ring when I receive a call.
Make sure that the ringer is not off. Refer to
Ringer volume
in
the TL86103 user’s manual provided with your telephone.
