Installation
Before using your phone, carefully peel the protective film off the
display. The film protects the handset window during shipment
and is not necessary for use.
Selecting.a.Location
You can place the phone’s base on a desk or table, or mount it on
a standard wall plate or directly on a wall. Select a location that
is:
near an accessible AC outlet
near a telephone line jack
away from electrical machinery, electrical appliances,
metal walls or filing cabinets, wireless intercoms,
alarms, and room monitors
away from other cordless phones
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 qualified 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.

RJ11C (or RJ11W for a wall plate jack).
