1.
Choose a spot near an electrical
outlet and a telephone jack.
Your phone requires a modular
telephone jack and a standard
electrical outlet
(120v AC). The
power cord is six feet long; make
sure there is an electrical outlet
within reach of the base. The outlet
should not be controlled by a wall
switch. If the switch is ever turned
off, the phone will not operate.
2.
Choose and mark the mounting
position.
The mounting screws should screw
into a wooden stud within the wall
-
they will not hold securely in
wallboard alone. Locate
a
wall stud
in the area where you want to install
your telephone. Use the Wall
Mounting Template and a pencil to
mark the screw positions on the
wall over the stud. Put the template
aside.
3.
Install the mounting sleeves and
screws.
Start the screw holes by lightly
tapping a nail into the marks you
made on the wall. Remove the nail
from the wall. Now slip the mounting
sleeves onto the screws as shown,
with the smaller end of the sleeve
toward the screw head. lnsert the
screws into the holes you started.
Tighten the screws until the large
end of the mounting sleeve is flat
against the wall.
4.
Position the wall mount adapter
on the base.
Line up the tabs on the wall mount
adapterwith the holes on the bottom
of the base. Snap the wall mount
adapter firmly in place.
5.
Mount the base on the wall.
Position the base so the mounting
studs will fit into the holes on the
bottom of the base. Position the
power cord to extend down the wall
the phone is to be mounted on.
Slide the base down on the
mounting studs until it locks into
place.
6.
Connect the telephone cord.
The telephone line cord has a
snap-in plug at each end. lnsert
one of the plugs into the jack on the
bottom of the base. lnsert the other
end of the plug into the wall jack.
7.
Plug the AC adapter on the power
cord into an electrical outlet.
8.
Set the dial mode switch on the
base unit.
If you have touch tone service on
your phone line, set the switch to
TONE. If you have rotary service,
set the switch to PULSE.
