INSTALLATION
MOUNTING THE PHONE
You can place the TAD-797’s base on a
desk or table, mount it on a standard
wall plate, or mount it directly on a wall.
Choose a location that is:
• near an AC outlet
• near a modular telephone line jack
• out of the way of normal activities
• away from electrical machinery,
electrical appliances, metal walls or
filing cabinets, wireless intercoms,
alarms, and room monitors
• away from other cordless phones
The base’s location affects the phone’s
range. If you have a choice of several lo-
cations, try each to see which provides
the best performance.
Caution: You must use a Class 2
power source that supplies 9
volts DC and delivers at least 500 mA.
Its center tip must be set to positive and
its plug must fit the TAD-797's
DC IN 9V
jack. The supplied AC adapter meets
these specifications. Using an adapter
that does not meet these specifications
could damage the TAD-797 or the
adapter.
Notes:
• Your telephone connects directly to
a modular telephone line jack. If
your phone line jack is not a modu-
lar jack, you can update the wiring
yourself, using jacks and adapters
available at your local RadioShack
store. Or, you can let the phone
company update the wiring for you.
!
• The USOC number of the jack to be
installed is RJ11C (RJ11W for a wall
plate).
