FCC Rules | Radio Shack 43-5829 guide

The Basics

The handset antenna is located on the back, above the ringer speaker. For maximum communication range, do not hold the handset in such a way as to cover the antenna by your hand. Also, place the handset in the upright position while not in use so the antenna can pick up the signals from the base.

When there is an obstacle such as a metal or concrete wall between the handset and the base, the operation might be affected. Try to keep it free from obstructions.

Your telephone connects directly to a modular telephone line jack. If your telephone wiring does not have a modular jack, you can update the wiring yourself using jacks and adapters (available at your local RadioShack store), or have the telephone company update the wiring for you. You must use compatible modular jacks that are compliant with Part

68of FCC Rules.

The USOC number of the jack to be NOTE installed is RJ11C (or RJ11W for a wall

plate jack).
