Getting started
Installation setup
Install the telephone base close to a telephone jack and a power outlet not
controlled by a wall switch. The telephone base can be placed on a flat surface
or vertically mounted on the wall (see page 10). For optimum range and better
reception, place the telephone base in a central and open location.
Depending on the environmental conditions, make sure that your Bluetooth
enabled cellular phone is within 12 feet of where you install the telephone
base in order to maintain a reliable connection between your Bluetooth cell
phone, telephone base, and cell tower (see below).
Avoid placing the telephone base too close to:
• Communication devices such as: personal computers, computer routers,
television sets, VCRs, wireless routers (wireless broadband, Wi-Fi, or 802.11)
or other cordless telephones.
• Excessive heat sources.
• Noise sources such as a window with traffic outside, motors, microwave
ovens, refrigerators, or fluorescent lighting.
• Excessive dust sources such as a workshop or garage.
• Excessive moisture.
• Extremely low temperature.
• Mechanical vibration or shock such as on top of the washing machine or
work bench.
