Before choosing a location for your new phone, read the INSTALLATION CONSIDERATIONS included in the

PRECAUTIONS AND IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS brochure. Here are some important guidelines you

should consider:

Avoid heat sources, such as
radiators, air ducts, and sunlight

Avoid television sets and
other electronic equipment

Avoid noise sources such as a window
by a street with heavy traffic

Avoid microwave ovens

Avoid excessive moisture, extremely
low temperatures, dust, mechanical
vibration, or shock

Avoid personal computers

Avoid other cordless telephones

Choose a central location

You should charge your handset for at least 15-20 hours before using the phone.

The location should be close to both a phone jack and a continuous power outlet which is

not switchable.

Keep the base and handset away from sources of electrical noise such as motors and

fluorescent lighting.

Be sure there is sufficient space to raise the base antenna to a vertical position.

The base can be placed on a desk, tabletop or mounted on a standard wall plate.
