SELECTING A LOCATION FOR THE BASE UNIT

The base unit needs AC power and connection to a telephone jack. This location should be as
central as possible in your home or office.

SELECTING A LOCATION FOR ADDITIONAL HANDSETS

Anywhere you have power will do! Avoid high humidity or high heat areas, and keep the
handsets out of extended exposure to direct sunlight. Handsets can be swapped in their
chargers at any time and can be placed anywhere within the extended transmission range of the
base.

OPERATING DISTANCE/NOISE INTERFERENCE

For optimal performance, your phone's base unit should be installed as follows:
Away from electrical appliances
such as a microwave oven, TV,
personal computer, or another
cordless phone.
NOTE:
While using the handset:
If you are near a microwave oven which is being used, noise may be heard at the receiver.
Move away from the microwave oven and closer to the base unit.
If more than one cordless phone is being used and your handset is near another cordless
phone's base unit, noise may be heard. Move away from the other cordless phone's base unit
and closer to your base unit.
In a HIGH and CENTRAL location with
no obstructions nearby.

INSTALL THE BASE UNIT

Plug the line cord into the "TEL LINE"
1
jack on the back of the base unit and
the other end into your telephone wall
