PREPARATION
SELECTING A LOCATION
You can place the phone’s ba se on a flat

trical appliances, metal walls, filing
cabinets, wireless interc oms, security
alarms, and room monitors
The base’s location affects the phone’s
range. If you have a ch oice of several lo cations, try each to see which provides
the best performance.
