different channels, provides you with the best possible reception during

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.

5) Put the AC adapter cord inside the
molded wiring channel, then wrap
the AC adapter cord around the
strain relief notch. Plug the AC
adapter into a standard
120 VAC wall outlet.
6) Plug one end of the telephone cord
into the
of the base, then plug the other end
into a standard telephone jack.
7) Line up the mounting slots on the base
with the mounting screws on the wall,
then push in and down until the
phone is firmly seated.
