Getting started
Telephone base & charger installation
Install the telephone base as shown below. Make sure that the electrical outlet
is not controlled by a wall switch.
If you subscribe to high-speed internet service (Digital Subscriber Line - DSL)
through your telephone lines, you must have a DSL filter between the telephone
base and the telephone wall jack. The filter will prevent noise and caller ID
problems caused by DSL interference. Please contact your DSL service provider
for more information about DSL filters.
The telephone base comes with the mounting bracket installed for desktop use.
Also, the telephone line cord and the power adapter are already plugged into the
telephone base. If you want to change to wall mounting installation, see page 10
for details.
