About Cordless Phone Performance
Your Cobra INTENNA cordless phone uses radio transmission to communi-
cate between the base and handset. It is thus subject to occasional interfer-
ence—static or buzzing noises, for example. These conditions may be caused
by electrical motors on household appliances, fluorescent lights, electrical
storms and other sources.
These steps will enhance the maximum performance of your new phone:
•
Change channels by pressing the 10 CHANNEL button on the
handset if you experience interference.
•
Don't cover the upper section of the cordless handset with your
hand
(see diagram below). This may block the internal antenna
located at the top of the handset, possibly reducing the phone's range
and audio clarity. Always hold the handset at the middle or close to
the bottom.
•
Avoid resting the handset on your shoulder
during conversations;
this may also block the performance of the internal antenna.
•
Don't plug your phone's power cord into an active AC
outlet that
also provides power for a major appliance or for charging units for
cordless appliances (vacuums, screwdrivers, etc.) or other electronic
devices.
