Telephone Jack Requirements

To use this phone, you need an RJ11C type modular telephone jack,

which might look like the one pictured here, installed in your home.

If you don’t have a modular jack, call your local phone company to

find out how to get one installed.

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 1.9GHz DECT

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 1.9GHz DECT 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

• Avoid sources of noise and heat, such as motors, fluorescent lighting, microwave ovens,

heating appliances and direct sunlight.

• Avoid areas of excessive dust, moisture and low temperature.
• Avoid other cordless telephones or personal computers.
• Never install telephone wiring during a lightning storm.
• Never install telephone jacks in wet locations unless the jack is specifically designed for

wet locations.
