before use.
Place the handset face down in the
base unit cradle. Make sure that
the IN USE/CHARGE light on the

unit cradle.

wires or terminals unless the tele-
phone line has been disconnected
at the network interface.

modifying telephone lines.
Wall Mounting
1 Choose a spot where the
telephone wall jack is near an
electrical outlet.
This phone requires a modular
telephone jack and a standard
electrical outlet (120V AC).
2 Remove the reversible base.
The reversible base is designed for
both table and wall mount installa-
tions. The telephone comes with
the reversible base installed in the
table mount position. To wall
mount this telephone you will
need to remove the reversible base
and position it so that the thicker
end is towards the front of the
telephone (see illustration on
previous page). You can remove
the reversible base by depressing
the clips on each side of the base
while gently lifting upwards.
3 Reattach the reversible base.
• Insert the tabs of the reversible
base into the slots on the
bottom of the telephone base.
• Gently press the thicker end of
the reversible base until it snaps
firmly in place.
4 Connect the telephone line cord.
• Using the short telephone line
cord supplied, insert one end of
the telephone line cord into the
telephone jack on the rear of
the telephone base.
• Feed the remaining line cord to
the rectangular opening by
pressing the line cord into the
grooves of the reversible base
leaving at least 3 inches free.
Plug the line cord into the
standard wall jack.
5 Connect the power cord.
Plug the power cord into the
power jack on the back of the
base. Plug the AC adapter into an
electrical outlet.
6 Mount the telephone to the
wall jack.
Position the telephone base so
the mounting studs on the wall
jack fit into the reversible base.
Slide the telephone down on the
mounting studs until the phone
locks in place.
