Installation

Selecting a Location

Before choosing a location for your new phone, there are some important guidelines you should
consider:
lThe location should be close to both a phone jack and continuous power outlet.
Note:
Make sure that the AC outlet is switched on for continuous power supply
Keep the Base Unit and Handset away from sources of electrical noise such as motors or
fluorescent lighting.
Be sure there is sufficient space to fully extend the Base Unit antenna.
The Base Unit can be placed on a desk or tabletop or wall mounted.
If you decide to mount your phone on the wall, make sure to change the Handset Retainer
so that the tab which holds the Handset faces up. (See page 14 for more information.)
You should charge your new phone for 15-20 hours before completing the installation or
using the Handset.

Modular Jack

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 modular
phone jacks, contact your local telephone company for information about their installation.
