INSTALLATION

MOUNTING THE PHONE

You can place the ET-1102’s base on a desk or table, mount it on a standard wall plate, or mount it directly on a wall. Choose a location that is:

•near an AC outlet

•near a telephone line 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 hand- set’s range. If you have a choice of sev- eral locations, try each to see which provides the best performance.

Caution: The supplied RadioShack adapter was designed specifically for your ET-1102. Use only the supplied adapter.

Notes:

•Your telephone connects directly to a modular phone line jack. If your phone line jack is not a modular jack, you can update the wiring yourself, using jacks and adapters available from your local Ra- dioShack store. Or, you can let the telephone company update the wir- ing for you.

•The USOC number of the jack to be installed is RJ11C, or RJ11W for a wall plate jack.
