MOUNTING THE PHONE
You can place the phone’s base on a desk or
table, mount it on a standard wall plate, or
mount it directly on a wall. Choose a location
that is:
near an AC outlet
near a modular 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 phone’s
range. If you have a choice of several loca-
tions, try each to see which provides the best
performance.
Cautions:
You must use a Class 2 power
source that supplies 9V AC
and delivers at least 350 mA.
Its center tip must be set to positive and
its plug must fit the phone's
DC IN 9V
jack. The supplied adapter meets these
specifications. Using an adapter that
does not meet these specifications
could damage the phone or the adapter.
Always connect the AC adapter to the
phone before you connect it to AC
power. When you finish, disconnect the
adapter from AC power before you dis-
connect it from the phone.
Note:
Your telephone connects directly to a
modular telephone line jack. If your phone
line jack is not a modular jack, you can up-
date the wiring yourself, using jacks and
adapters available at your local RadioShack
store. Or, you can let the phone company up-
date the wiring for you.
The USOC number of the jack to be installed
is RJ11C (RJ11W for a wall plate).
On a Desk Top, Shelf, or Table
1. Plug one end of the supplied long modu-
lar cord into the
TEL
LINE
jack on the
back of the base.
2. Plug the modular cord’s other end into a
modular telephone line jack.
3. Insert the supplied AC adapter’s barrel
plug into the
DC IN 9V
jack on the back of
the base.
