Choosing the Best Location

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

Avoid heat sources, such as radiators,

Avoid noise sources such as a window by

air ducts, and sunlight

a street with heavy traffic

Avoid television sets and other electronic equipment

Choose a central location Choosing the Best Location

Avoid microwave ovens

Avoid excessive moisture, extremely low temperatures, dust, mechanical vibration, or shock

Avoid personal computers

Avoid other cordless telephones

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

The cradle can be placed on a desk, tabletop, or mounted on a standard wall plate. 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 specially wired alarm equipment connected to the telephone line, be sure that installing the system does not disable your alarm equipment. If you have questions about what will disable your alarm equipment, contact your telephone company or a qualified installer.
