not switchable.
•Keep the base and handset away from sources of electrical noise such as motors 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, tabletop, or mounted on a standard wall plate.
Avoid heat sources, such as
radiators, air ducts, and sunlight

other electronic equipment
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
