damage to the eyes or skin. It may be toxic if swallowed.
6. Exercise care in handling battery(ies) in order not to short out the battery(ies) with
conducting materials such as rings, bracelets, and keys. The battery(ies) or conductor may
overheat and cause burns.
7. Do not attempt to recharge the battery(ies) provided with or identified for use with this
product that are not rechargeable. The battery(ies) may leak corrosive electrolyte
or explode.
8. Do not attempt to rejuvenate the battery(ies) provided with or identified for use with this
product by heating them. Sudden release of the battery(ies) electrolyte may occur causing
burns or irritation to eyes or skin.
9. When replacing battery(ies), all batteries should be replaced at the same time. Mixing fresh
and discharged batteries could increase internal cell pressure and rupture the discharged
battery(ies). (Applies to products employing more than one separately replaceable
primary battery.)
10. When inserting battery(ies) into this product, the proper polarity or direction must be
observed. Reverse insertion of battery(ies) may result in leakage or explosion.
11. When inserting battery(ies) into this product, do not twist or pinch the wires or allow wires
to become pinched in battery door.
12. If storing over 30 days, remove battery(ies) from this product because the battery(ies)
could leak and damage the product.

your new telephone. If you are concerned with interference, please refer to the owner’s manual
for these devices on how to properly set channels to avoid interference.
7.3 Installing the Phone
The Motorola ML1000 may be connected to either two 2-line (RJ14C) wall jacks or four single
line (RJ11C) wall jacks to accommodate all four lines. The Motorola ML1100 does not require
connection to telephone lines.
Choose an area near an electrical outlet and telephone wall jack. Your phone should be placed
on a level surface, such as a table top or desk.
Install 5 AAA-size alkaline batteries (not included) for backup power in the event of a power
failure. To open the battery door, find the tab on the top of the battery compartment. Push
down on the tab and pull away from the phone. A flat bladed screw driver may be needed.
Insert the batteries only as shown on the diagram inside the battery compartment.
NOTE
If the low battery appears in the display, you will need to replace the batteries to ensure unit
operation during a power failure.
IMPORTANT
If you are not going to use the telephone for more than 30 days, remove the batteries to avoid
battery leakage and damage to the unit.
Plug the AC power supply cord into the power jack on the back of the base and the other end
into an electrical outlet.
12
For pluggable equipment, the socket-outlet (power adaptor) shall be installed near
the equipment and shall be easily accessible.
Caution: To reduce risk of personal injury, fire, or damage use only the power
adaptor supplied. This power adaptor is intended to be correctly orientated in a
vertical or floor mount position.

straight telephone line cord tagged as “Line 1+2” into the jack marked “LINE 1+2” on the
back of the Motorola ML1000 base. Plug the other end of the line cord into the wall jack.
Plug the other line cord into the jack marked “LINE 3+4” on the back of the phone, with
the other end plugged into the wall jack as well.
If you have four single-line wall jacks installed in your home or oce, simply plug each
single line cord into the corresponding port on the back of the Motorola ML1000 base
phone.
