INSTALLATION
SELECTING A
LOCATION
You can place the phone’s base on a
desk top or table, or mount it on a wall.
Select a location that is:
near an AC outlet
near a telephone line jack
out of the way of normal activities
away from electrical machinery,
electrical appliances, metal walls
or filing cabinets, wireless inter-
coms, alarms, and room monitors
away from other cordless phones
The base’s location affects the hand-
set’s range. If you have a choice of
several locations, try each to see
which provides the best performance.
Caution:
The supplied RadioShack
AC adapter was designed specifically
for your ET-918/920. Use only the sup-
plied adapter.
Notes:
• Your telephone connects directly
to a modular telephone line jack. If
your phone line jack is not a mod-
ular jack, you can update the wir-
ing yourself, using jacks and
adapters available at your local
RadioShack store. Or, you can let
the phone company update the
wiring for you.
The USOC number of the jack to
be installed is RJ11C (RJ11W if
you want to mount it on a wall
plate).
Placing the Base on a
Desk Top
Follow these steps when you place the
base on a desk, shelf, or table.
1. Plug one end of the supplied long
modular cord into the
TEL LINE
jack on the back of the base.
2. Plug the modular cord’s other end
into a modular phone line jack.
