INSTALLATION
SELECTING A LOCATION
Select a location for the telephone that
meets these requirements:
• Near an AC outlet
• Near a telephone line jack
• Out of the way of normal activities
• Away from electrical machinery,
electrical appliances, and metal
walls or filing cabinets
• Away from wireless intercoms,
alarms, and room monitors
The base's location affects the phone's
range. If you have a choice of several
locations, try each one to see which
provides the best performance.
If the phone line jack is not a modular
jack, you must update the wiring your-
self, using jacks and adapters avail-
able at your local Radio Shack store.
Or, you can let the phone company up-
date the wiring for you.
Notes:
• The phone company will charge
you for the installation of the nec-
essary jacks.
• The USOC number of the jack to
be installed is RJ11C.
