WARNING
Do not place your phone in the bathroom or other humid areas.
Location
When choosing a location for your new phone, here are some important guidelines you
should consider:
• Avoid sources of noise and heat, such as motors, fluorescent lighting, microwave ovens,
heating appliances and direct sunlight.
• Avoid areas of excessive dust, moisture and low temperature.
• Avoid other cordless telephones or personal computers.
• Never install telephone wiring during a lightning storm.
• Never install telephone jacks in wet locations unless the jack is specifically designed for
wet locations.
• Never touch non-insulated telephone wires or terminals, unless the telephone line has
been disconnected at the network interface.
• Use caution when installing or modifying telephone lines.
HANDSET RANGE
Optimal range is reached when there are no other electrical appliances working within the
range area. Any obstruction between the base and handset will also reduce the range
significantly.
SIGNAL STRENGTH
When out of range of the corded base, the screen shows
OUT OF RANGE
. If you are on a call,
the line will hang up. Move back within in range. The cordless handset will automatically re-
connect to the corded base.
Setting up
IMPORTANT
The base must be plugged into an electrical outlet at all times. Do not connect the telephone
line cord into the telephone wall jack until the handset is fully charged. Only use the adapter
and telephone line cord supplied with the product.
WHICH POWER ADAPTER?
The power adapter with the smaller pin is for the base unit and the power adapter with the
larger pin is for the charger unit (only for multi-handset packs).
