INSTALLATION

Select a location for the TAD that is
near a telephone jack and an AC outlet
and is not in the way of normal activi-
ties.
INSTALLING THE
BACKUP BATTERY
If the AC power fails or you unplug the
TAD, a 9V backup battery (not sup-
plied) saves the message groups,
message counts, and the settings for
the day, time, and security code. We
recommend you use an alkaline bat-
tery, such as Radio Shack Cat. No. 23-
553.
1. Remove the battery compartment
cover on the bottom of the TAD by
removing the screw on the cover's
tab, then lifting off the cover.
2. Snap the battery's contacts firmly
to the battery connector, then
place the battery into the compart-
ment.
3. Replace the cover.
6
Replace the battery if
while the AC adapter is properly con-
nected.
Cautions:
• Before you replace the battery, be
sure the supplied adapter is
securely connected to an AC out-
let and to the jack on the back of
the TAD. Otherwise, you might
lose any stored information.
• Always use a fresh battery of the
required size and type.
• Dispose of the battery promptly
and properly. Do not bury or burn
it.
