Before choosing a location for your new phone, read the INSTALLATION CONSIDERATIONS included in the PRECAUTIONS AND IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS brochure. 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 continuous power outlet which is not switchable.
•Keep the base and handset away from sources of electrical noise such as motors, microwave ovens, and fluorescent lighting.
•Be sure there is sufficient space to raise the base antenna to a vertical position.
•The base can be placed on a desk or tabletop.
•If your second phone line has a separate modular jack, place your phone so you can access both jacks.
