Installing the Battery
In the event of a power loss, a 9-volt battery (not included)
enables the answerer to retain greetings and messages stored in
memory. To install the battery:
1. Remove the battery compartment door on the bottom of the
unit by loosening the screw with a Phillips screwdriver. Lift the
door.
2. Connect a fresh 9-volt alkaline battery (not included). The
large and small contacts on the battery clip and the battery
will interlock. Once connected, place the battery inside the
battery compartment.
3. Replace the battery compartment door and tighten the screw.
NOTE: If the battery is low or not installed, the unit
announces “Low Battery” at the end of message
playback.
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 network interface.
• Use caution when installing or modifying telephone lines.
