Setting up

Follow these simple steps to prepare your phone for use.

Finding a location

The location should be close to both a phone jack and a continuous power outlet (one which is not connected to a switch).

The base and handset should be kept away from sources of electrical noise such as motors, microwave ovens, and fluorescent lighting.

For better reception, place the base as high as possible.

The base should be placed in an open area for optimum range and reception.

If your home has wired alarm equipment connected to a phone line, be sure that installing the system does not disable your alarm equipment. If you have questions about what will disable alarm equipment, contact your telephone company or a qualified installer.

Connecting your phone

1Connect the base power supply to the back of the base. Plug the other end into the wall electrical outlet.

WARNING

Use only the power supply that came with your phone.

Using another power supply could seriously damage your phone and invalidate your warranty.

Do not connect the telephone line cord until your handset is fully charged. This will prevent the risk of the phone being answered before the battery pack is charged. Answering the phone before the battery pack is fully charged may prevent them from reaching their optimum capacity.

2If you have purchased a model containing multiple handsets and chargers, connect each charger's power supply to the charger base and plug into a wall electrical outlet.
