Installation options

Your telephone base is ready for tabletop use. If you want to mount your telephone
on a wall, use the provided wall-mount bracket to connect with a standard dual­stud telephone wall-mounting plate. If you do not have this mounting plate, you
can purchase one from many hardware or consumer electronics retailers. You

might need a professional to install the mounting plate.

Tabletop to wall-mount installation

With the upper tabs (marked A) on top, align the holes of the wall-mount
bracket with the studs on the standard wall-mounting plate and slide the
bracket down until it locks securely.

Plug one end of the telephone line cord into the jack on the bottom of the
telephone base and plug the other end into the telephone wall jack (or
DSL filter). Plug the small end of the telephone base power adapter into
the jack on the bottom of the telephone base and plug the other end into
an electrical outlet not controlled by a wall switch. Route the telephone
line cord and the power cord through the grooves at the bottom of the
telephone base, accordingly.

Hold the cords to the side of the telephone base. Align the upper slots on
the back of the telephone base just above the upper tabs of the wall-mount
bracket. Make sure the lower slots of the telephone base are also aligned
above the lower tabs of the wall-mount bracket. Push the telephone base down
and against the wall-mount bracket until it clicks securely in place.

If necessary, bundle the telephone line cord and power adapter cord
neatly with twist ties.

If you dial seven digits to make a local call (no area code required), enter your area
code into the telephone as the home area code. When you receive a call from within
your home area code, the caller ID history only displays the seven digits of the
telephone number.

This feature makes it easy for you to place a call from the caller ID log. If you dial 10
digits to make a local phone call, do not use this home area code feature. If you do, you
cannot place local calls from your caller ID log, as they will have only seven digits.

NOTE: If in the future, your telephone service provider requires you to dial 10 digits to make a
local call (area code plus telephone number), you need to delete your home
area code and dial out locally from the caller ID log. With the home area code displayed,
press and hold MUTE/DELETE until the digits are deleted, and then press MENU/SELECT.
The home area code is now restored to its default setting of _ _ _ (empty).
