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.

NOTES
Ô
• 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 USOC number of
the jack to be installed is
RJ11C (or RJ11W for a
wall plate jack).
CAUTION
You must use a
Class 2 power
source that supplies
9V DC and delivers at least
350 mA. Its center tip must
be set to positive and its plug
must fit the phone’s DC IN
9V jack. The supplied
adapter meets these
specifications. Using an
adapter that does not meet
these specifications could
damage the phone or the
adapter.
