Introduction
CAUTION: When using telephone equipment,
there are basic safety instructions that
should always be followed. Refer to the
IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS provided
with this product and save them for future
reference.

on electricity, you should have at least one
phone in your home that isn’t cordless, in case
the power in your home goes out.

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 1.9 GHz frequency for
communication, and, if not properly set, these
devices may interfere with each other and/
1ꢁ
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 1.9 GHz 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.
• 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.
