eliminate this type of interference, you need to change to a
different channel. Finally, it should be noted that some cordless
telephones operate at frequencies that may cause interference to
nearby TVs 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 or VCR. If interference is experienced, moving the
cordless telephone farther away from the TV or VCR will often
reduce or eliminate the interference.
More than One Cordless Telephone
If you want to use more than one cordless telephone in your
home, they must operate on different channels. Press the channel
key to select a channel that provides the clearest communication.
Cordless Telephone Privacy
Cordless telephones are radio devices. Communications between
the handset and base of your cordless telephone are
accomplished by means of radio waves which are broadcast over
the open airways. Because of the inherent physical properties of
radio waves, your communications can be received by radio
receiving devices other than your own cordless telephone unit.
Consequently, any communications using your cordless
telephone may not be private.
Installation Considerations
SELECTING A LOCATION
Before choosing a location for your new phone, there are some
important guidelines you should consider:

outlet which does not have a switch to interrupt its power.)
• Keep the base and handset away from sources of electrical
noise such as motors or fluorescent lighting.
• Be sure there is sufficient space to fully extend the base
antenna.
• The base can be placed on a desk or tabletop or mounted on a
standard telephone wall plate.
• You should charge your new phone for 15-20 hours before
completing the installation or using the handset.
