About the digital security code

This cordless telephone uses a digital security code to prevent
unauthorized access to your base unit. This security code prevents
other cordless handsets from making calls through your base unit.
A random security code will be assigned automatically between
your base unit and handset when you charge the battery pack for
the first time.
If you want to reset the security code, see page 35.

• Connect the base unit

• Choose the dialing mode

Choose the best location

Before choosing a location for your new phone, read the
INSTALLATION CONSIDERATIONS included in the PRECAUTIONS
AND IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS brochure. Here are some
important guidelines you should consider:

Avoid heat sources, such as
radiators, air ducts, and sunlight

Avoid television sets
and other electronic
equipment

Choose a central location

Avoid noise sources such as a window
by a street with heavy traffic

Avoid microwave ovens

Avoid excessive
moisture, extremely low
temperatures, dust,
mechanical vibration, or
shock

Avoid personal
computers

Avoid other cordless
telephones

• You should charge your handset for 15-20 hours before using the
phone.

• The location should be close to both a phone jack and a continuous
power outlet which is not switchable.

• Keep the base and handset away from sources of electrical noise
such as motors and fluorescent lighting.

• Be sure there is sufficient space to raise the base antenna
fully vertical.

• The base can be placed on a desk, tabletop or mounted on a
standard wall plate.

5

Place the power cord so it
does not create a trip
hazard, or where it could
become chafed and create
a fire or electrical hazard.

Connect the base unit

If you want to install the base unit on the wall, see page 8.

1 Connect the telephone line cord to the TEL LINE jack and to

a telephone outlet.

2 Connect the AC adapter to the DC IN 9V jack and to a

standard 120V AC wall outlet.

3 Set the base unit on a desk or

tabletop and place the handset
on the base unit.
Then raise the antenna to a
vertical position.

6

Use only the supplied AD-310 AC
adapter. Do not use any other AC

location, that could cause a hazard when inserting screws into
the wall.

• Try to mount your phone within 10 - 15 feet of a working phone
jack to avoid excessive cord lengths.

• Make sure the wall material is capable of supporting the weight of
the base and handset.

• Use

#10 screws (minimum length of 1-3/8 inches) with anchoring

devices suitable for the wall material where the base unit will be
placed.

1 Insert two mounting screws

into the wall, (with their
appropriate anchoring device),
3-15/16 inches apart. Allow
about 3/16 of an inch between
the wall and screwheads for
