for approximately 15 seconds, then plug it back in. Allow
up to one minute for the handset and telephone base to

routers, radios, radio towers, pager towers, cellular
telephones, digital telephones, intercoms, room monitors,
televisions, VCRs, personal computers, kitchen appliances,
and other cordless telephones.
If your telephone is plugged in with a modem or a surge
protector, plug the telephone (or modem/surge protector) into
a different location. If this doesn’t solve the problem, re-locate
your telephone or modem farther apart from each other, or
use a different surge protector.
The location of your telephone base can impact the
performance of your cordless phone. For better reception,
install the telephone base in a centralized location within
your home or ofce, away from walls or other obstructions. In
many environments, elevating the telephone base improves
overall performance.
Disconnect the telephone base from the telephone wall jack
and plug in a corded telephone. If calls are still not clear,
the problem is probably in the wiring or telephone service.
Contact your telephone service provider (charges might
apply).
If the other telephones in your home are having the same
problem, the problem is in the wiring or telephone service.
Contact your telephone service provider (charges may
apply).
