INSTALLATION
Selecting a Location
Before choosing a location for your new phone, there are some important guidelines you should consider:
•The location should be close to both a phone jack and power outlet.
•Keep the Base Unit and Handset away from sources of electrical noise such as motors or fluorescent lighting.
•Be sure there is sufficient space to fully extend the Base Unit antenna.
•The Base Unit can be placed on a desk or tabletop or mounted on a wall.
•If you decide to mount your phone on the wall, make sure to change the handset retainer so that the tab which holds the Handset faces up.

Telephone Line Outlet — Modular Jack
Most phone equipment available now uses modular jacks. Phone cords are fitted with a molded plastic connector which plugs into this type of jack. If you do not have modular phone jacks, contact you local telephone company for information about their installation.
Connecting the Telephone Cord
Consider these safety guidelines before connecting the telephone cords:
CAUTION
•Never install telephone wiring during a lightning storm.
•Never touch uninsulated telephone wires or terminals.
•Use caution when installing or modifying telephone lines.
Applying Power to the Base Unit
The XSA660 or XSA650 requires an AC outlet and the included AC Adaptor. To relieve strain on the DC plug when the phone is placed on a desk or table, connect the adaptor as shown below.
Wrap the power cord around the convenient notch on the bottom.
Important: Place the power cord so that it does not create a trip hazard, or where it could become chafed and create a fire or other electrical hazards.
