The base unit and other compatible Panasonic units use radio waves to communicate with each other. For maximum distance and noise-free operation, we recommend the following:
L Placing the product away from electrical
appliances.
L Placing the base unit in a HIGH and
CENTRAL location with no obstructions such as walls.
L Raising the antenna vertically. L If you use the handset near a microwave
oven which is being used, noise may be heard. Move away from the microwave oven and closer to the base unit.
L If you use the handset near another
cordless phone’s base unit, noise may be heard. Move away from the other cordless phone’s base unit and closer to your base unit.
Introduction

heat sources such as heaters, kitchen stoves, etc. It should not be placed in rooms where the temperature is less than 5 °C (41 °F) or greater than 40 °C (104 °F). Damp basements should also be avoided.
L The maximum calling distance may be
shortened when the product is used in the following places: Near obstacles such as hills, tunnels, underground, near metal objects such as wire fences, etc.
L Operating near 2.4 GHz electrical
appliances may cause interference. Move away from the electrical appliances.

Preparation

Hook

Setting up the base unit

Connecting the AC adaptor and telephone line cord
Connect the telephone line cord until it clicks into the base unit (A) and telephone line jack (B). Connect the AC adaptor cord by pressing the plug firmly (C).

C
Note:
L The AC adaptor must remain connected
at all times. (It is normal for the adaptor to feel warm during use.)
L The AC adaptor should be connected to
a vertically oriented or floor-mounted AC outlet. Do not connect the AC adaptor to a ceiling-mounted AC outlet, as the weight of the adaptor may cause it to become disconnected.
L The unit will not work during a power
failure. We recommend connecting a standard telephone to the same telephone line or to the same telephone jack using a Panasonic T-adaptor (page
6). Emergency power can be supplied to the unit by connecting a Panasonic battery back-up power supply noted on page 6.
