Telephone Jack Requirements
To use this phone, you need an RJ11C type modular
phone 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
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. 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.
• Never install telephone wiring during a lightning storm.
• Never install telephone jacks in wet locations unless the jack is specifically
designed for wet locations.
• Never touch non-insulated telephone wires or terminals, unless the
telephone line has been disconnected at the network interface.
• Use caution when installing or modifying telephone lines.
• Temporarily disconnect any equipment connected to the phone such as
faxes, other phones, or modems.
Installation Guidelines
• Install telephone near both a telephone (modular) jack and an electrical
power outlet.
