Selecting a Location
Before choosing a location for your new phone, there are some important
guidelines you should consider:
➧
The location should be close to both a phone jack and continuous
power outlet. ( A continuous power outlet is an AC outlet which does
not have a switch to interrupt its power.)
➧
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 rotate the Base Unit antenna fully
vertical.
➧
The Base Unit can be placed on a desk or tabletop or mounted on a
standard AT&T or GTE wall plate.
➧
You should charge your new phone for 15-20 hours before
completing the installation or using the Handset.
Telephone Line Outlets
There are two types of phone outlets:
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.
Hard-wired Jack
Some equipment is wired directly to a phone jack, and these types of
installations require a modular jack converter. This type of installation is not
difficult; however, you should contact your Uniden telephone dealer or a
telephone supply store for advice about the proper adapter or converter for
your particular situation.
Connecting the Telephone Cords
Consider these safety guidelines before connecting the telephone cords:
CAUTION:
➧
Never install telephone wiring during a lightning storm.
➧
Never touch uninsulated telephone wires or terminals unless the
telephone line has been disconnected.
➧
Use caution when installing or modifying telephone lines.
