Installing the Phone
Choosing the Best Location
When choosing a location for your new phone, here are some important guidelines you should consider:
Avoid heat sources, such as radiators, air ducts, and sunlight
Avoid television sets and other electronic equipment
Choose a central location
Avoid noise sources such as a window by a street with heavy traffic
Avoid microwave ovens
Avoid excessive moisture, extremely low temperatures, dust, mechanical vibration, or shock
Avoid personal computers
Avoid other cordless telephones
•The location should be close to both a phone jack and a power outlet that is not connected to a wall switch.
•The base and handset should be kept away from sources of electrical noise such as motors, microwave ovens, and fluorescent lighting.
•Don't place the base in direct sunlight or subject it to high temperatures. The battery may not charge properly.
•For better reception, place the base as high as possible.
•The base should be placed in an open area for optimum range and reception.
•If your home has wired alarm equipment connected to a phone line, be sure that installing the system does not disable your alarm equipment. If you have questions about what will disable alarm equipment, contact your telephone company or a qualified installer.
