Installation
Getting started
1
See pages 8-10 for
easy instructions.
You must install and
charge the battery
before using the
telephone.
STOP!
Install the telephone base close to a telephone jack and a power
outlet not controlled by a wall switch. The telephone base can
be placed on a flat surface or vertically mounted on the wall
(see page 11). For optimum range and better reception, place the
telephone base in a central and open location.
If you subscribe to high-speed Internet service (DSL - digital subscriber
line) through your telephone line, you must install a DSL filter between
the telephone line cord and the telephone wall jack (see the following
page). The filter prevents noise and caller ID problems caused by
DSL interference. Please contact your DSL service provider for more
information about DSL filters.
Your product may be shipped with a protective sticker covering the
handset display - remove it before use.
For customer service or product information, visit our website at
www.telephones.att.com or call 1 [phone]. In
Canada, dial 1 [phone].
Avoid placing the telephone base and charger too close to:
Communication devices such as television sets, VCRs, or other
cordless telephones.
Excessive heat sources.
Noise sources such as a window with traffic outside, motors,
microwave ovens, refrigerators, or fluorescent lighting.
Excessive dust sources such as a workshop or garage.
Excessive moisture.
Extremely low temperature.
Mechanical vibration or shock such as on top of a washing
machine or workbench.
