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.
13. Discard “dead” battery(ies) as soon as possible since “dead” batteries are more likely to leak in
a product.
14. Do not store this product, or the battery(ies) provided with or identified for use with this
product, in high-temperature areas. Batteries that are stored in a freezer or refrigerator for the
purpose of extending shelf life should be protected from condensation during storage and

6 Connections and Setup
6.1 Important Installation Information
• Never install telephone wiring during a lightning storm.
• Never install telephone jacks in wet locations unless the jack is specifically designed for
wet locations.
• Never touch uninsulated telephone wires or terminals unless the telephone line is disconnected
from the network.
• Use caution when installing or modifying telephone lines.
• Temporarily disconnect any other equipment connected to the telephone.
6.2 Important Installation Guidelines
• Install telephone near both a telephone jack and an electrical power outlet.
• Avoid sources of noise, such as a window or a busy street, and electrical noise, such as motors,
microwave ovens and fluorescent lighting.
• Avoid heat sources, such as heating air ducts, heating appliances, radiators and direct sunlight.
• Avoid areas of excessive moisture or extremely low temperature.
• Avoid dusty locations
• Avoid other cordless telephones or personal computers.
CAUTION
Always disconnect all phone cords from the base unit before battery installation or replacement.
NOTE
Some cordless telephones operate at frequencies that may cause or receive interference with
nearby TVs, microwave ovens, and VCRs. To minimize or prevent such interference, the base of the
cordless telephone should not be placed near or on top of a TV, microwave ovens, or VCR. If such
interference continues, move the cordless telephone farther away from these appliances.
Certain other communications devices may also use the 1.9 GHz frequency for communication, and,
if not properly set, these devices may interfere with each other and/or 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. Typical devices that may use the 1.9 GHz frequency for
communication include wireless audio/video senders, wireless computer networks, multi-handset
cordless telephone systems, and some long-range cordless telephone systems.
6.3 Installing the Base and Connecting your System
The phone may be connected to two line (RJ14C) wall jacks to accommodate all two lines.
1. Choose an area near an electrical outlet and a telephone wall jack (RJ11C), and place your
cordless telephone on a level surface, such as a desktop or tabletop, or you may mount it on
the wall.
2. Install 5 AAA-size alkaline batteries (not included) for back up power in the event of a
power failure.
• Insert a flat-head screw driver or similar object into the battery door latch and gently pry
upward to release the battery door from the base.
• Insert the batteries inside the battery compartment as shown on the diagram.
11
• Snap the battery compartment door back into place.
NOTE
If the low battery icon appears in the display, you need to replace the batteries. It is important that
you replace them as soon as possible to maintain unit operation when electrical power is o. As a
precaution, you may want to write down any stored information you do not want erased.
IMPORTANT
If you are not going to use the telephone for more than 30 days, remove the batteries because
they can leak and damage the unit.
3. Plug the power supply cord into the power jack on the back of the base and the other end into
an electrical outlet.
Caution: To reduce risk of personal injury, fire, or damage use only the base power
adaptor supplied. This power adaptor is intended to be correctly orientated in a vertical
or floor mount position.
4. Connect the telephone line cords:
If you have 2 single-line wall jacks installed in your home or oce, you can use adaptors/
couplers (not included) to combine the 2 single telephone lines into 1 dual lines. The adaptor/

15 Troubleshooting
Operation by battery
• If the power cord is not plugged into the base unit, and the battery is available the unit will
enter Battery Operation Mode. The Battery Operation Mode is designed to allow users to
continue use of the phones during a power outage and is not intended for prolonged use.
REPLACE BATTERY
• The 5 AAA batteries need replacing or are improperly installed or not installed at all.
No dial tone
• Check or repeat installation steps.
Make sure the base power cord is connected to a working electrical outlet.
Make sure the telephone line cords are not damaged and are connected to the phone and the
wall jack.
• Make sure the hook switch pops up when the handset is lifted.
• Check the s button. Make sure the indicator is o.
• Disconnect the base station from the wall jack and connect another phone to the same jack. If
there is no dial tone in the second phone, the problem might be your wiring or local service.
Dial tone is ok, but can’t dial out
• Make sure the phone is set to the correct dial mode.
Phone does not ring

appliance. If necessary, relocate the base.
One-Touch Memory / Directory dialing doesn’t work
• Did you program the memory location keys correctly?
• Make sure the phone number is formatted properly.
No Caller ID
• You must subscribe to the standard Name/Number Caller ID service from your local telephone
company to receive CID information.
No Display
• Make sure the unit is connected to a non-switched electrical outlet. Disconnect the power
adaptor from the base and reconnect it.
Date/Time setting is restored to default setting
• This maybe caused by power failure. Set Date/Time again.
Intercom does not function correctly
• Make sure all extension phones are properly registered with the Motorola ML25254 base.
