Use the following procedure to mount the phone on the wall using the standard
footstand. Refer to Figure 3-3 for a graphical overview of these procedures.
Before You Begin
To ensure that the handset attaches securely to a wall-mounted phone, remove the
handset wall hook from the handset rest, rotate the hook 180 degrees, and reinsert
the hook. Turning the hook exposes a lip on which the handset catches when the
phone is vertical. For an illustrated procedure, see Installing the Wall Mount Kit
for the Cisco IP Phone.
Procedure
Step 1 Push in the footstand adjustment knob.
Step 2 Adjust the footstand so it is flat against the back of the phone.
Step 3 Modify the handset rest so that the handset remains on the ear-piece rest when the
phone is vertically placed.
a. Remove the handset from the ear-piece rest.
b. Locate the tab (handset wall hook) at the base of the ear-piece rest.
c. Slide this tab out, rotate it 180 degrees (left to right), and reinsert it.
d. Place the handset on the ear-piece rest.
Step 4 Insert two screws into a wall stud, matching them to the two screw holes on the
back of the footstand.
The keyholes fit standard phone jack mounts.
Step 5 Hang the phone on the wall.
