The instructions below are for both table and wall
installation.
1 Choose a spot near an electrical outlet and a
telephone jack.
This phone requires a modular telephone jack and a
standard electrical outlet (110v AC) not controlled by
a wall switch. For better range coverage,install the
phone on the upper-most level of your home.

indentation and sliding downward.
• Plug the battery pack connector into the handset,
and place the battery pack and wires into the
compartment.
• Replace the battery cover by sliding it on its track
up over the battery compartment until it snaps
firmly into place.
3 Connect the telephone line cord.
Plug one end of the telephone line cord into the jack on
the back of the base (see illustration above). Plug the
other end of the line cord into a modular jack. Make
sure the plugs snap firmly into place. (If you are wall
mounting the phone,use the shor t line cord,and press
the excess cord into the groove on the bottom of the
base.)

Plug the power adapter into the jack labeled POWER
on the back of the base. Loop the cord through the
strain-relief groove,and press the cord into the groove
on the back of the base. Plug the AC adapter on the

wall jack will fit into the holes on the bottom of the

into place.
6 Charge the handset battery.

The CHARGING light on the base goes on to show the
