Before choosing a location for your new phone, read the Installation Considerations
included in the Precautions and Important Safety Instructions brochure. Here are
some important guidelines you should consider:

• The location should be close to both

a phone jack and a continuous power
outlet. (A continuous power outlet is
an AC outlet which does not have a
switch to interrupt its power.)

• Keep the base and handset away from

sources of electrical noise such as
motors and fluorescent lighting.

• Be sure there is sufficient space to rotate the base antenna fully vertical.

• The base can be placed on a desk, tabletop or mounted on a standard wall plate.

• You should charge your handset for 15-20 hours before connecting the phone line.

• If your second phone line has a separate jack, place your phone so you can access

both jacks.
