Installation
Digital Security System
Your cordless phone uses a digital security system to protect against false
ringing, unauthorized access, and charges to your phone line.
INSTALLATION NOTE: Some cordless telephones operate
at frequencies that may cause or receive interference
with nearby TVs, microwave ovens, and VCRs. To minimize
or prevent such interference, the base of the cordless
telephone should not be placed near or on top of a TV,
microwave ovens, or VCR. If such interference continues,
move the cordless telephone farther away from these
appliances.
Certain other communications devices may also use
the 5.8 GHz frequency for communication, and, if not
properly set, these devices may interfere with each
other and/or your new telephone. If you are concerned
with interference, please refer to the owner’s manual for
these devices on how to properly set channels to avoid
interference. Typical devices that may use the 5.8 GHz
frequency for communication include wireless audio/video
senders, wireless computer networks, multi-handset
cordless telephone systems, and some long-range cordless
telephone systems.
Important Installation Guidelines

microwave ovens, heating appliances and direct sunlight.
