MOUNTING THE PHONE
Selecting a Location
You can place the phone’s base on a desk or
table, or mount it on a standard wall plate or
directly on a wall. Choose a location that is:
• near an AC outlet
• near a telephone line jack
• out of the way of normal activities
• away from electrical machinery, electri-
cal appliances, metal walls or filing cabi-
nets, wireless intercoms, alarms, and
room monitors
• away from other cordless phones
The base’s location affects the handset’s
range. If you have a choice of several loca-
tions, try each to see which provides the best
performance.
You can power the phone using the supplied
9V, 350 mA AC adapter.
Cautions:
You must use a Class 2 power
source that supplies 9V DC
and delivers at least 350 mA.
Its center tip must be set to positive and
its plug must fit the telephone's
DC IN
9V
jack. The supplied adapter meets
these specifications. Using an adapter
that does not meet these specifications
could damage the telephone or the
adapter.
• Always connect the AC adapter to the
phone before you connect it to AC
power. If you disconnect the power, dis-
connect the adapter from AC power
before you disconnect it from the phone.
Your telephone connects directly to a modu-
lar telephone line jack. If your telephone wir-
ing does not have a modular jack, you can
update the wiring yourself using jacks and
adapters (available at your local RadioShack
store), or have the telephone company up-
date the wiring for you. You must use com-
patible modular jacks that are compliant with
Part 68 of
FCC Rules
.
Note:
The USOC number of the jack to be
installed is RJ11C (or RJ11W for a wall plate
jack).
On a Desk, Shelf, or Table
Follow these steps when you place the base
on a desk, shelf or table.
1. Insert the bracket’s tabs into the base’s
upper tab slots, then press down on the
bracket’s clips and insert them into the
clip slots.
