Wall Mounting
The wall mount bracket is designed for use on standard wall mount plates only.
1. Run the power and telephone line cords through the slots in the bracket,
connecting them to the jacks located on the underside of the base.
2. Plug the AC adapter into an electrical outlet. If the battery has not been
previously charged, place the handset in the base, and allow it to charge for 10-
12 hours (or overnight).
3. Connect the telephone line cord to the wall jack.
4. Line up the tabs on the
wall mount bracket with the
slots on the bottom of the
base unit. Snap the bracket
firmly in place.

fit into the holes on the wall
mount bracket. Slide the
base unit down on the
mounting studs until it locks
into place.
Check for Dial Tone
After the battery is charged, pick up the handset and press PHONE/FLASH. You should
