SELECTING A LOCATION

You can place the phone on a desk top or table, mount it on a stan- dard wall plate, or mount it directly on the wall. Select a location that is:

²near an AC outlet not controlled by a wall switch

²near a telephone line jack

²out of the way of normal activities

²away from electrical machinery, electrical appliances, metal walls or filing cabinets, wireless intercoms, alarms, and room mon- itors

The base’s location affects the phone’s range. If you have a choice of several locations, try each to see which provides the best perfor- mance.

Caution: You must use a Class 2 power source that supplies 12

!volts DC and delivers at least 200 mA. Its center tip must be set to positive and its plug must fit the SP-514's POWER jack. The sup-

plied adapter meets these specifications. Using an adapter that does not meet these specifications could damage the SP-514 or the adapter.

Notes:

²Your telephone connects directly to a modular telephone line jack. If your phone line jack is not a modular jack, you can update the wiring yourself, using jacks and adapters available at your local RadioShack store. Or, you can let the phone company update the wiring for you.

²The USOC number of the jack to be installed is RJ11C (RJ11W for a wall plate).
