INSTALLATION
INSTALLATION NOTE: Some cordless telephones operate at frequencies that
may cause interference to nearby TVs, microwave ovens, and VCRs. To minimize
or prevent such interference, the base of the cordless telephone should not be
placed near or on top of a TV, microwave ovens, or VCR. If such interference
continues, move the cordless telephone farther away from these appliances.
Certain other communications devices may also use the 2.4 GHz frequency for
communication, and, if not properly set, these devices may interfere with each
other and/or your new telephone. Typical devices that may use the 2.4 GHz
frequency for communication include wireless audio/video senders, wireless
computer networks, multi-handset cordless telephone systems, and some long-
range cordless telephone systems.
• Never install telephone wiring during a lightning storm.
• Never install telephone jacks in wet locations unless the jack is
specifically designed for wet locations.
• Never touch non-insulated telephone wires or terminals, unless the
telephone line has been disconnected at the network interface.
• Use caution when installing or modifying telephone lines.
• Temporarily disconnect any equipment connected to the phone such as
faxes, other phones, or modems.
