Installation

Selecting the Installation Location

Select a location for the phone that avoids excessive heat or humidity. The
base unit can be placed on a desk or tabletop near a standard 120V AC outlet
and telephone line jack. The base unit can also be mounted on a standard
AT&T or GTE wall plate using the Wall Mount Adaptor. If the phone is to be
paired with a keyset, place both phones in the same area. Keep the base unit
and handset away from sources of electrical noise (motors, fluorescent lighting,
computers).

Connecting the Telephone Line

There are two types of phone outlets:
1) Modular Jack
Plug the telephone line cord from the base unit into a standard modular tele-
phone jack.
2) Hardwired Jack
A modular jack converter (not included) is required. You may need to
rewire when connecting the converter (making color-coded connections).

Connecting the Telephone Cord

CAUTION:
• Never install telephone wiring during a lightning storm.
• Never touch uninsulated telephone wires or terminals unless the telephone
line has been disconnected at the KSU.
• Use caution when installing or modifying telephone lines.
