Selecting a Location

Selecting a Location

You can place the phone’s base on a desk or table. Select a location that is:

near an accessible AC outlet

near a telephone line jack, but away from other cordless phones

away from electrical machinery, appliances, metal walls or fi ling cabinets, 
wireless intercoms, alarms, and room monitors

Notes:

If your home has specially wired alarm equipment connected to the 
telephone line, be sure that installing the system does not disable your 
alarm equipment.

If you have questions about what will disable alarm equipment, contact your 
telephone company or a qualifi ed installer.

The base’s location affects the handset’s range. If you have a choice of several 
locations, try each to see which provides the best performance.

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).
