Choose the best location
Before choosing a location for your new phone, read the INSTALLATION CONSIDERATIONS included in the
PRECAUTIONS AND IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS brochure. Here are some important guidelines you
should consider:
Avoid heat sources, such as
radiators, air ducts, and sunlight
Avoid television sets and
other electronic equipment
Avoid noise sources such as a window
by a street with heavy traffic
Avoid microwave ovens
Avoid excessive moisture, extremely
low temperatures, dust, mechanical
vibration, or shock
Avoid personal computers
Avoid other cordless telephones
Choose a central location
You should charge your handset for at least 15-20 hours before using the phone.
The location should be close to both a phone jack and a continuous power outlet which is
not switchable.
Keep the base and handset away from sources of electrical noise such as motors and
fluorescent lighting.
Be sure there is sufficient space to raise the base antenna to a vertical position.
The base can be placed on a desk, tabletop or mounted on a standard wall plate.
