Even so, this handset and telephone base can communicate only over a certain distance - which can vary with the locations of the telephone base and handset, the weather, and the construction of your home or office.

Move closer to the telephone base, then press to answer the call. If the handset is moved out of range during a phone conversation, you might hear noise or interference.

To hang up properly, walk back into range, periodically pressing OFF. 44 www.vtechphones.com
