INSTALLATION
SELECTING A
LOCATION
You can place the base on a desk,
shelf, or table, or mount it directly on
the wall. The base’s location affects
the phone’s range. If you have a
choice of several locations, try each
to see which one provides the best
performance.
Select a location that is:
• Near an AC outlet
• Near a telephone line jack
• Away from electrical machinery,
electrical appliances, and metal
walls or filing cabinets
• Away from wireless intercoms,
alarms, and room monitors
If the phone line jack is not a modular
jack, you must update the wiring. You
can convert the wiring yourself, using
jacks and adapters available at your
local Radio Shack store. Or, you can
let the phone company update the
wiring for you.
Notes:
• The phone company charges for
the installation of the necessary
jacks.
• The USOC number of the nec-
essary baseboard jack to be
installed is RJ11C.
