Installing a Line Filter or DSL Filter  
A telephone line filter or DSL filter prevents services that use the phone line  
from causing interference on your phone. To get a line filter, contact your  
service provider or look in an electronics store.  
Plug the filter into the telephone wall jack and plug the base into the filter.  
Make a test call to make sure the noise is gone.  
Liquid Damage  
CAUTION: If the base is covered in liquid, disconnect the adapter &  
phone cord from the wall before touching it.  
If the liquid is only on the exterior housing of the base or handset, wipe it off  
and use as normal. If you can hear liquid inside the housing:  
1. Remove all compartment covers, and disconnect all cables and cords.  
2. If liquid is leaking from any vent or hole, turn the phone so that the vent  
faces down. If not, place the largest vent face down.  
3. Let dry for at least 3 days. Check for liquid inside the phone before replacing  
compartment covers & reconnecting cords.  
Resetting Stations  
Unplug the base to reset it. Plug it back in after at least a minute.  
If you have trouble with a handset or if you want to replace one, reset it.
