INSTALLING YOUR TELEPHONE
Note: The following installation procedures are applicable for all of
the 8100 Series telephones.
Table/Desk Installation
Use the 7-foot straight line cord that came with your telephone to
connect the telephone to a modular jack, and, if you are using the
8103, 8104, or 8111, you must connect the telephone with the power
supply that comes in the box with the phone.
WARNING: Do not plug the handset cord into the line jack or the
adjunct jack on the bottom of your telephone since it could damage
your handset and the telephone.
1 Turn the telephone upside down so that you can see the bottom of
the telephone.
2 Plug one end of the line cord into the line jack on the bottom of the
telephone.
3 Feed the line cord through the line cord routing channel.
4 Turn the telephone right-side up and place it on your desk or table.
5 Plug one end of the coiled handset cord into the handset jack on
the side of the telephone.
6 Plug the other end of the handset cord into the handset.
7 Hang up the handset.
8 Do one of the following:
— If you are using an 8101, 8102M, or 8110M, plug the free end
of the line cord into a modular wall jack.
— If you are using an 8103, 8104, or 8111, plug the free end of
the line cord into the PHONE jack on the power supply. Then,
plug the power supply cord into the LINE jack on the power
supply and plug the other end of the power supply cord into
the modular wall jack.
9 Lift the handset and listen for dial tone.
10 Set the Ringer Volume Control switch and the Tone Selectors to
the settings you want.
Wall Installation
Use the following directions to mount the telephone on a standard
wallphone jack with mounting studs.
1 You must reverse the handset tab (which holds the handset when
you hang up).
• Hold down the switchhook and slide the handset tab up and out of
its slot.
• Turn the tab so that the curved end is facing up.
• Insert the tab back into its slot.
2 Turn the telephone upside down so that you can see the bottom of
the telephone.
3 Remove the mounting base by pushing in on the triangle at the
center of the large end of the base and then lifting the base off the
telephone.
4 Turn the base so the larger end is down.
5 Place the base on the wall-jack mounting studs and pull down
until it is secure.
6 Plug one end of the line cord into the line jack on the bottom of the
telephone.
Note: You may prefer to use an 8-inch line cord rather than the 7-
foot cord provided with the telephone. If you use the 7-foot cord,
you will need to place it into the back of the telephone in its
original coiled position.
7 Plug the free end of the line cord into the modular wall jack.
8 Plug one end of the coiled handset cord into the handset jack on
the side of the telephone.
9 Place the telephone against the base and push down so that the
base locking tab slides into the slot at the top of the telephone.
10 Push in on the triangle at the bottom center of the base to lock the
bottom of the telephone into place.
11 Plug the free end of the coiled handset cord into the handset and
hang up the handset.
12 Lift the handset and listen for dial tone.
13 Set the Ringer Volume Control switch and Tone Selectors to the
settings you want.
Labeling and Installing the Programmable Dialing Button
Designation Card
1 Remove the plastic cover, which fits over the designation card, by
placing your finger in the finger slot on the right side of the
telephone and lifting up.
2 Place the plastic cover aside, and remove the blank designation
card from the telephone.
3 In the blank space next to the appropriate Programmable Dialing
button, write or type the name, telephone number, or dialed
feature that you want to store there.
4 Place the designation card on the telephone. Replace the plastic
cover over the card by fitting the cover’s bottom tabs into the slots
on the telephone and pressing down, allowing the tabs on the top
to snap into place.
Removing and Covering the Auto Answer Button
If you have an 8110M or 8111 telephone, you may want to disable the
Auto Answer button ( ) so that it cannot be activated
accidentally. Follow this procedure to remove the Auto Answer

Note: To complete this procedure, you will need the slot cover which
is shipped in the box with the telephone.
1 Press so that the button is in the “up” position
2 Lift the button from its slot on the face of the telephone. (You will
probably want to use a set of needlenose pliers for this task.)
3 Take the slot cover (provided with the telephone) and place it in a
horizontal position in the empty slot. Be sure that the cap is snug
with the face of the telephone.
Using Adjunct Equipment With The 8102M or 8104
Note: The installation of adjunct equipment (such as the S201A
Speakerphone or 500A Headset Adapter) with the 8102M or 8104
telephone is different from installation with other telephones.

2 Plug the other end of the adjunct cord into the Adjunct jack on the
rear of the 8102M or 8104 telephone.

jack on the bottom of the 8102M or 8104 telephone.
