GETTING
STARTED
Installing the Phone
Choosing the Best Location
When choosing a location for your new phone, here are some important guidelines you should consider:
The location should be close to
both a phone jack and a continuous
power outlet (one which is not
connected to a switch).
For optimum range and reception,
place the base in an open area, as
high as possible.
If your home has wired alarm
equipment connected to a phone
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 qualified installer.
Notes:
For maximum range:
Keep both the base and handset antennas free of obstruction.
When the handset is not in use, place the handset in an upright position.
Metal and reinforced concrete may affect cordless telephone performance.
