Move to a different position to clear the interference. If you do not move, it might cause a short break or your call may be cut off. "Out of range" warning If you hear a warning tone during a call, and the sound in the earpiece becomes faint or distorted, you may be going out of range of the base unit. Move nearer to the base unit within 20 seconds, until the warning tone stops. Otherwise, your call may be cut off. Mains power connection IMPORTANT - The iDECT X3 base unit must be used with the mains adapter supplied with the unit. Using any other adapter will result in non-compliance with EN60950, and will invalidate any approval given to this apparatus. ONLY use the rechargeable batteries supplied with the handset. DO NOT use non-rechargeable batteries - they may burst and cause damage to your telephone. If you connect your telephone to a line with a broadband connection, you will need to insert a micro-filter between the telephone and the telephone line; otherwise you may get interference between the telephone and the broadband, which could cause problems. In a home with broadband, every telephone must have a micro-filter connected, not just the one at the telephone point that your modem is connected to. If you need more broadband micro-filters, contact your broadband supplier.
