Setup Overview
2.1

Installing the Battery

The Verizon Wireless Home Phone comes with a battery that provides power to the device,
enabling you to use the device's functions, such as E911, even when a power outage occurs.
[NOTE: While the Wireless Home Phone does have a backup battery, if the landline phone to
which the Wireless Home Phone is connected requires external electric power to operate,
Service (including the ability to make and receive 911 calls) will not be available during a
power outage.] To install the battery into the Wireless Home Phone, follow the steps below:
1. Unbox the Wireless Home Phone, AC/DC power adapter, battery, and RJ11 cable.
2. Remove the bottom cover by sliding it off following the blue arrows shown below in the left
image.
3. Place the end of the battery that has metal contacts into the battery slot of the device,
making sure the contacts align with the metal contacts in the slot, then push down on the
other end of the battery.
4. Replace the battery cover by sliding it back onto the device. Make sure that the cover is flush
with the bottom edge of the device.
