INSTALLING

AND ADJUSTING YOUR PHONE

INSTALLATION CONSIDERATIONS

Selecting a Location

Before choosing a location for your new phone, here are some important guidelines you should consider:

The location should be close to both a phone jack and a power outlet.

Keep the base and handset away from sources of electrical noise such as motors and fluorescent lighting.

Be sure there is sufficient space to rotate the base antenna fully vertical.

The base can be placed on a desk, tabletop or mounted on a standard wall plate.

You should charge the battery in your handset for 15-20 hours before connecting the phone line.

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 a modular phone jack, contact your local telephone company for information about their installation.

Connecting the Telephone Cords

Consider these safety guidelines before connecting the telephone cord.

Caution!

Never install telephone wiring during a lightning storm.

Never touch uninsulated telephone wires or terminals unless the telephone line has been disconnected.

Use caution when installing or modifying telephone lines.
