WARNING
•  Do not place your phone in the bathroom or other 
humid areas.
Location
When choosing a location for your new phone, here are 
some important guidelines you should consider:
•  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.
HANDSET RANGE
Optimal range is reached when there are no other 
electrical appliances working within the range area. Any 
obstruction between the corded base and cordless 
handset will also reduce the range significantly.
SIGNAL STRENGTH
When out of range of the corded base, the screen shows 
SEARCHING...
. If you are on a call, the line will hang up. Move 
back within in range. The cordless handset will 
automatically re-connect to the corded base.
Setting up
IMPORTANT
The corded base must be plugged into the electrical 
outlet at all times. Do not connect the telephone line 
cord into the wall jack until the cordless handset is fully 
charged. Only use the power adapter and telephone 
line cord supplied with the product.
WHICH POWER ADAPTER
The power adapter with the smaller pin plug is for the 
corded base unit and the power adapter with the bigger 
pin plug is for the cordless charger unit.
