Unit Installation with RJ31x (CA38A in Canada) The Caresse equipment must be able to seize the telephone line and place a call in an emergency situation. It must be able to do this even if other equipment (telephone, answering system, computer modem, etc.) already has the telephone line in use.

Then drill 2 holes 5.9” (149mm) apart, firmly attach screws and then locate the wall mounting points on the home unit with the screws.
