MOUNTING THE PHONE

You can place the phone's base on a desk or
table, mount it on a standard wall plate, or
directly on a wall. Choose a location that is:
• near an AC outlet
• near a modular telephone line jack
• out of the way of normal activities
• away from electrical machinery,
electrical appliances, metal walls or
filing cabinets, wireless intercoms,
alarms, and room monitors
• away from other cordless phones
The base's location affects the phone's
range. If you have a choice of several
locations, try each to see which provides the
best performance.

specifications. Using an adapter that
does not meet these specifications

phone before you connect it to AC
power. When you finish, disconnect the

charges when you call by long distance to

disconnect it from the phone.
Your telephone connects directly to a
modular telephone line jack. If your
telephone wiring does not have a modular
jack, you can update the wiring yourself
using jacks and adapters (available at your
local RadioShack store), or have the
telephone company update the wiring for
you. You must use compatible modular jacks
that are compliant with Part 68 of FCC Rules .
Note: The USOC number of the jack to be
installed is RJ11C (or RJ11W for a wall plate
jack).
