INSTALLING
▼ Selecting a Location
Before choosing a location for your new phone, here are some important
guidelines you should consider:
●The location should be close to both
a phone jack and a power outlet.
●Keep the base and handset away from
sources of electrical noise such as
motors and fluorescent lighting.
●Be sure there is sufficient space to rotate
the base antenna fully vertical.
●The base can be placed on a desk, tabletop or
mounted on a standard wall plate.
●You should charge the battery in your handset for 15-20 hours
before connecting the phone line.
●Most phone equipment available now uses modular jacks. Phone cords are
fitted with a molded plastic connector which plugs into this type of jack. If
you do not have a modular phone jack, contact your local telephone
company for information about their installation.
▼ Connecting the Telephone Cords
Consider these safety guidelines before connecting the telephone cord.
Caution!
●Never install telephone wiring during a lightning storm.
●Never touch uninsulated telephone wires or terminals unless the telephone
line has been disconnected.
●Use caution when installing or modifying telephone lines.
