INSTALLING THE BATTERIES
The telephone base requires three 1.5 volt, AA-size batteries, preferably alkaline, (batteries not in-
cluded). These batteries are required for the retention of user programmed settings and Caller ID data
during a power outage. The BE-4900 does not require the AA batteries to be installed for normal op-
eration.
NOTE: In
the event
ofo
power outage,
your
IBM-4900
telephone will not operate until power is restored.

2. Open the battery compartment by removing the safety screw and pressing the tab to release the
cover.
