CHOOSING A LOCATION
Do the following:
• Choose the best location
• Connect the phone
• Choose the dialing mode
Away from heat sources, such as
radiators, air ducts, and sunlight
Near a central
location and on a
level surface
Away from a microwave oven
Where you place the phone affects the reception quality of the handset:
• Away from another cordless telephone
• Place the base near an AC electrical outlet and near telephone line jack
• Place the base away from metal walls and metal file cabinets
CAUTION: The cordless telephone operates at a frequency that may cause
interference to nearby TVs and VCRs; the base phone should not
be placed near, or on top of a TV or VCR. If interference is experi-
enced, moving the cordless telephone farther away from the TV or
VCR will often reduce or eliminate the interference.
Note:
While the 2.4GHz frequency is clearer, we suggest that you do not
use this phone within 20 feet of a working microwave. The
microwave produces frequencies in this range which may cause
interference. This interference is normal for all 2.4GHz phones and
should not be considered a product defect.
Away from VCRs and TV sets and
other electronic equipment
Away from noise sources such as a
window by a street with heavy traffic
Away from a
personal computer
Away from excessive
moisture, extremely low
temperatures, dust,
mechanical vibration, or
shock

TELEPHONE SETUP
Connecting the Base
1. Connect the telephone line cord to the "Line" jack and to a telephone outlet.
2. Connect the AC power adapter to the 9V DC jack and to an AC outlet.
Note: Use only the supplied AC power adapter. Do not use any other AC
power adapter. Connect the AC power adapter to a continuous power
supply. Place the phone close to the AC outlet so that you can plug in
the AC power adapter easily.
Tip:
If your telephone outlet is not modular, contact your telephone company for
assistance.
