INSTALLATION CONSIDERATIONS  
✃✃ Selecting a Location  
Before choosing a location for your new phone, here are some important  
guidelines you should consider:  
The location should be close to both  
a phone jack and a power outlet.  
Keep the base and handset away from  
sources of electrical noise such as  
motors and fluorescent lighting.  
You should charge the battery in your handset for 14  
hours before connecting the phone line.  
Most phone equipment available now uses modular jacks. Phone cords are  
fitted with a plastic connector which plugs into this type of jack. If you do not  
have a modular phone jack, contact your local telephone company for  
information about their installation.  
During a power failure, this telephone will not operate.  
Please ensure that a separate phone, not dependent on local  
power, is available for emergencies.  
More Than One Phone  
Each telephone device that you connect draws power from the phone line. We refer  
to the power drawn as the device’s Ringer Equivalence Number (REN). The REN is  
shown at the bottom part of your telephone. If you are using more than one phone  
or other device on the line, add up all the RENs. If the total is more than 3, your  
phones might not ring.
