Location
Important
Although the O2 handset is water resistant we do not recommend you locate
your main base or charger in the bathroom or other humid areas.
You need to place your O2 base within 2 metres of the mains power and
telephone wall sockets so that the cables will reach. The socket-outlet should
be installed near the equipment and should be easily accessible.
Make sure that it is at least 1 metre away from other electrical appliances
to avoid interference. Your O2 works by sending radio signals between the
handset and base. The strength of the signal depends on where you place the
base. Placing it as high as possible ensures the best signal.

The unit has two antennas that can be used with the handset:
