INSTALLING YOUR
TELEPHONE
Your telephone connects directly to a modular telephone line jack. If your telephone wiring does not have a modular jack, you can update the wiring yourself using jacks and adapters (available at your local RadioShack store), or have the telephone company update the wiring for you. You must use compatible modular jacks that are compliant with Part 68 of FCC Rules.
SELECTING A LOCATION
Select a location that is:
•near an accessible AC outlet
•near a telephone line jack (The USOC number of the jack to be installed is RJ11C or RJ11W for a wall plate jack).
•out of the way of normal activities
•away from electrical machinery, electrical appliances, metal walls or filing cabinets, wireless intercoms, alarms, and room monitors
•away from other cordless phones
The base’s location affects the handset’s range. If you have a choice of several locations, try each to see which provides the best performance.
