Choose a location for your telephone

Choose a central location close to a telephone jack and a power outlet not con- nected to a wall switch. The telephone base can be placed on a flat surface or mounted on a standard wall plate. For optimum range and better reception, place the telephone base in a high and open location.

Avoid placing the telephone base too close to:

•Communication devices such as: personal computers, computer routers, television sets, VCRs, wireless routers (wireless broadband, wi-fi, or 802.11) or other cordless telephones.

•Excessive heat sources.

•Noise sources such as a window with traffic outside, motors, microwave ovens, refrigerators, or fluorescent lighting.

•Excessive dust sources such as a workshop or garage.

•Excessive moisture.

•Extremely low temperatures.

•Mechanical vibration or shock such as on top of the washing machine or work bench.
