CHOOSING A LOCATION
Select a location for your fax machine
that:
• Is not in direct sunlight.
• Is near an AC power outlet and
modular phone line jack.
• Is at least 4 inches from other
objects.
• Is not near heating or air condi-
tioner units.
• Does not block the ventilation
openings.
• Keeps cords out of the way of nor-
mal activities.
Also note these important consider-
ations:
• Do not place objects on top of or
under the fax machine.
• Do not place the fax machine on a
rugged surface or on thick carpet
which might cause a jam when
you feed a document.
CONNECTING TO THE
PHONE LINE
Plug one end of the supplied modular
cord into the
LINE
jack on the back of
the fax machine. Plug the cord’s other
end into a modular telephone line jack.
Note: Your fax machine connects di-
rectly to a modular telephone line jack.
If your telephone wiring does not have
a modular jack, you can update the
wiring yourself or have the telephone
company update it for you.
• Radio Shack stores sell jacks and
adapters to convert older wiring
methods to modular wiring.
• The telephone company charges
to install the necessary jacks.
• The USOC number of the jack to
be installed is RJ11C.
