returning the handset to the base.
The UltraClear Plus™ true compander circuitry virtually eliminates
background noise. This innovative technology, together with 40
different channels, provides you with the best possible reception during
all your conversations.
To protect you against misbilled calls which might result from your phone
being activated by other equipment, the EXT 1760 has Random Code™
digital security which automatically selects one of over 65,000 digital
security codes for the handset and base. Also, the AutoSecure™ feature
electronically locks your phone when the handset is in the base.

Direct Wall Mounting
t
If you don’t have a standard wall plate, you can mount your phone
directly to the wall. Before mounting your cordless telephone, consider
the following:

behind the mounting location. Inserting screws into areas such as this
can be hazardous.
• Try to mount your phone within 10 - 15 feet of a working phone jack in
order to avoid excessive cord length. Remember, you are not mounting
your phone to a wall plate with a built-in phone jack.
• If the selected mounting area has no wooden support beams directly
behind it, you will need the appropriate anchoring devices in order for
the wall to properly support your phone.
1) Insert two mounting screws into
