INSTALLATION

MOUNTING THE PHONE

You can place the ET-1111’s base on a desk or table, mount it on a standard wall plate, or mount it directly on a wall. Choose a location that is:

near an AC outlet

near a telephone line jack

out of the way of normal activities

away from electrical machinery, electrical appliances, metal walls or filing cabinets, wireless intercoms, alarms, and room monitors

away from other cordless phones

The base’s location affects the hand- set’s range. If you have a choice of sev- eral locations, try each to see which provides the best performance.

Caution: You must use a Class

!2 power source that supplies 9

volts DC and delivers at least 350 mA. Its center tip must be set to positive and its plug must fit the ET- 1111's DC IN 9V jack. The supplied adapter meets these specifications. Us- ing an adapter that does not meet these specifications could damage the ET- 1111 or the adapter.

The supplied RadioShack adapter was designed specifically for your ET-1111. Use only the supplied adapter.

Notes:

Your telephone connects directly to a modular phone line jack. If your phone line jack is not a modular

jack, you can update the wiring yourself, using jacks and adapters available from your local Ra- dioShack store. Or, you can let the telephone company update the wir- ing for you.

The USOC number of the jack to be installed is RJ11C, or RJ11W for a wall plate jack.

On a Desk

Follow these steps when you place the base on a desk or table.

1.Plug one end of the supplied long modular cord into the TEL LINE jack on the back of the base.

2.Plug the modular cord’s other end into a modular phone line jack.

3.Insert the supplied AC adapter’s barrel plug into the DC IN 9V jack on the back of the base.
