SELECTING A LOCATION

You can set the TAD-1010’s base on a flat surface (such as a desktop or coun- tertop), or mount it on a wall plate or di- rectly on the wall. The base’s location affects the phone’s range. If you have a choice of several locations, try each to see which one provides the best perfor- mance.

Select a location that is:

•Near an AC outlet

•Near a modular telephone line jack

•Away from electrical machinery, electrical appliances, and metal walls or filing cabinets

•Away from wireless intercoms, alarms, and room monitors

If the phone line jack is not a modular jack, you must update the wiring. You can convert the wiring yourself, using jacks and adapters available at your lo- cal Radio Shack store. Or, you can let the phone company update the wiring for you.

Notes:

•The phone company charges for the installation of the necessary jacks.

•The USOC number of the base- board jack to be installed is RJ11C.
