INSTALLATION
CHOOSING A LOCATION
Select a location for your fax machine
that:
• Is not in direct sunlight
• Is near an AC power outlet and
modular phone line jack
• Is at least 4 inches from other
objects
• Is not near heating or air condi-
tioner units
• Does not block the ventilation
openings
Also note these important consider-
ations:
• Keep cords out of the way of nor-
mal activities.
• Do not place objects on top of or
under the fax machine.
• Do not place the fax machine on a
rugged surface or on a thick car-
pet, which might cause a jam
when you feed a document.
CONNECTING THE
HANDSET CORD
Connect one end of the supplied
coiled cord to the jack on the handset.
Then plug the other end into the
HANDSET
jack on the left side of the
fax machine. Place the handset in its
cradle.
CONNECTING TO THE
PHONE LINE
Plug one end of the supplied modular
telephone cord into the
TEL LINE
jack
on the back of the fax machine. Plug
the other end of the cord into a modu-
lar telephone line jack.
Note:
If the phone line does not have
a modular jack, you must update the
wiring. You can convert the wiring
yourself or have the telephone compa-
ny update it for you.
• Radio Shack stores sell jacks and
adapters to convert older wiring
methods to modular wiring.
• The telephone company charges
to install the necessary jacks.
• The USOC number of the jack to
be installed is RJ11C.
• This fax machine might not be
compatible with external in-line
telephone amplifiers.
