GETTING STARTED

Installing Your Phone

Charge the Baery

1. Unpack all handsets, battery packs, and battery

covers. If you need to remove a cover, press in on the
notch and slide the cover down and off.

2. Line up the battery connector with the jack inside the

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.
For 2 or more handsets, place each handset in a charger.

# Charge the handset completely (about 15 hours) before using.

Connect the Telephone Cord

1. Use the telephone cord to connect the

TEL LINE

jack on the base to a standard

telephone wall jack.

# If the display says Check Tel Line, check the connection between the

base and the phone jack.

2. If you are mounting the phone on the wall, place the mounting slots (on the

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

Test the Connecon

Make a quick test call. Pick up the handset and press

TaLk/fLash

. (Press

x If there’s a lot of noise, check for interference (see p. 13).
x If you keep hearing a dial tone, change to pulse dialing (see below).

Changing from Tone to Pulse Dialing

Your phone uses tone dialing by default. If your phone company uses pulse
dialing, you need to change your phone’s dial mode.

1. Press

MENu/sELEcT

and select Global Setup.

2. Select Dial Mode then Pulse. You’ll hear a confirmation tone.
To send DTMF tones during a call (e.g., for an automated response system),

automatically returns to pulse dialing.
