Direct wall mounting
▼
If you don’t have a standard wall plate, you can mount your phone
directly to the wall. Before doing this, consider the following:
• Select a location away from electrical cables, pipes, or other items
behind the mounting location. Inserting screws into areas such as
this can be hazardous.
• Try to mount your phone within 10 - 15 feet of a working phone
jack in order to avoid excessive lengths. Remember, you are not
mounting your phone to a wall plate with a built-in phone jack.
• If the selected mounting area has no wooden support beams directly
behind it, you will need the appropriate anchoring devices in order
for the wall to properly support your phone.
1) Insert two mounting screws into
the wall, with their appropriate
anchoring device if necessary,
3-15/16 inches apart. Allow about
3/16 of an inch between the wall
and screw heads for mounting
the phone.
2) Slide the wall mount into the
notches at the top of the base.
3) Rotate the wall mount adapter
down and snap it into place at
the bottom of the base.
4) Plug the AC adapter into the base.

into the

into a standard telephone jack.
