The instructions below are for both table and wall installation.
1 Choose a spot near an electrical outlet and a telephone jack.
This phone requires a modular telephone jack and a standard
electrical outlet (110v AC) not controlled by a wall switch.
2 Install the handset battery.
(For an illustration of battery installation, see the BATTERIES section
of this manual.)
• Remove the battery cover by pressing on the indentation and
sliding downward.
• Plug the battery pack connector into the handset, and place the
battery pack and wires into the compartment.
• Replace the battery cover by sliding it on its track up over the
battery compartment until it snaps firmly into place.
3 Connect the telephone line cord.
Make sure the plugs snap firmly into place. (If you are wall
mounting the phone, use the short line cord, and press the excess
cord into the groove on the bottom of the base.)
4 Connect the power cord as shown above.
NOTE: Connect power to the base unit before placing the handset in
the cradle.
