Entering Text from Your Handset
You can use the number keypad on your handset to enter text by referring to the letters printed on each number
key. When you press the number key in a text entry eld, the phone displays the rst letter printed on the number
key. Press the number key twice to display the second letter and three times to display the third. Capital letters are
displayed rst, then lower case letters, then the number on the key. If two letters in a row use the same number key, enter the rst letter, then use [right] or [left] on the four-way
function key to move the cursor to the next position to enter the second letter. For example, to enter the word “Movies”:
Press [6] once to enter M.
Use [right] on the four-way function
key to move the cursor to the right.
Press [6] six times to enter o.
Press [8] six times to enter v.
Press [4] six times to enter i.
Press [3] ve times to enter e.
Press [7] eight times to enter s.
Press [select/ ] to end your text
entry.
If you make a mistake while entering a name, use [right] or [left] on the four-way function key to move the cursor to the incorrect character. Press [menu/clear] to erase the wrong character, and then enter the correct character. To delete all characters, press and hold [menu/clear].

Installing the Phone
Choosing the Best Location
When choosing a location for your new phone, here are some important guidelines you should consider:
The location should be close to both a phone jack and a continuous power outlet (one which is not connected to a switch). The base and handset should be kept away from sources of electrical noise such as motors, microwave ovens,
and uorescent lighting.
For better reception, place the base as high as possible. The base should be placed in an open area for optimum range and reception. If your home has wired alarm equipment connected to a phone line, be sure that installing the system does not disable your alarm equipment. If you have questions about what will disable alarm equipment, contact your
telephone company or a qualied installer.
Note: For maximum range:
Keep the antenna free of obstruction. When the handset is not in use, place the handset in an upright position. Do not hold the handset where you would block the signal. Metal and reinforced concrete may affect cordless telephone performance.

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:
Avoid electrical cables, pipes, or other items behind the mounting location that could cause a hazard when inserting screws into the wall. Try to mount your phone within 1.5m of a working phone jack to avoid excessive wire lengths. Make sure the wall material is capable of supporting the weight of the base and handset. Use #10 screws with a minimum length of 35mm, with anchoring devices suitable for the wall material where the base unit will be placed.
Insert two mounting screws into the wall, using the appropriate anchoring device,
100mm apart. Allow about 3mm between the wall and screw heads for mounting
the phone.
Refer to the steps on page 13 to complete the mounting process.
