Interconnecting to home telephone wiring is not necessary, but 
is possible; however, it is not recommended unless you possess 
sufficient knowledge of electrical systems. Use with home wiring 
requires the physical disconnection from other services, including 
the landline coming into your home. Use of a qualified licensed 
electrician is highly recommended. Improper installation may 
result in phone equipment damage or even a fire.

Frequently Asked Questions
What kind of phone do I need to work with the Wireless Home 
Phone device?
Most standard touch-tone phones may be used. Rotary phones 
are not supported. Cordless phone systems provide the most 
flexibility and allow you to easily place additional handsets 
throughout your home. Cordless phone systems still need to be 
plugged into a power outlet.  
During a power outage, a standard corded phone which doesn’t 
require electrical power is needed.
