test call to make sure the noise is gone.
Liquid Damage
CAUTION: If the base is covered in liquid, disconnect the adapter and
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. Disconnect all cables and cords and remove all compartment covers.
2. If liquid is leaking from any vent or hole, turn the phone so that 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 and reconnecting cords.
