the base.

the base.
3. Plug the telephone
line cord into the LINE
jack on the back of the

4. Connect the small end
of the power adaptor
into the POWER 9V DC jack on the back of the answerer. Plug the other end into an
AC power outlet. The unit announces "Press menu key to set up the unit". The unit
is ready for setup or to answer calls with the default greeting and settings.
