Choosing.the.Best.Location

When.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.continuous.power.outlet.(one.which.is.not.con-
nected.to.a.switch)..
The.base.and.handset.should.be.kept.away.from.
sources.of.electrical.noise.such.as.motors,.micro-
wave ovens, and uorescent lighting.
For.better.reception,.place.the.base.as.high.as.pos-
sible..
The.base.should.be.placed.in.an.open.area.for.opti-
mum.range.and.reception..
If.your.home.has.specially.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.
qualied installer.
Note:.For.maximum.range:.
Keep.the.antenna.free.of.obstruction.
When.the.handset.is.not.in.use,.place.the.handset.in.an.upright.position.
Do.not.hold.the.handset.where.you.would.block.the.signal..
Metal.and.reinforced.concrete.may.affect.cordless.telephone.performance.
