handset; the connector only fits one way.

3. Push the connector in until it clicks into place; tug gently on the wires to

make sure the battery is securely connected.

4. Replace the battery cover and slide it into place.

5. Use an AC adapter to connect the power jack on the base to a regular indoor

(120V AC) power outlet. Connect any chargers the same way.

6. Place a handset in the base with the display facing forward. If the display

doesn’t light up, reseat the handset or connect the base to a different outlet.

rear of the base) over the pins on the wall plate; slide the base down to lock
it into place.
