Installation
You must install and charge the battery before using the telephone.
Install the telephone base close to a telephone jack and a power outlet not controlled by a wall switch. The telephone base can be placed on a flat surface or vertically mounted on the wall (see page 8). For optimum range and better reception, place the telephone base in a central and open location.
If you subscribe to high-speed Internet service (digital subscriber line ­DSL) through your telephone line, you must install a DSL filter between the telephone line cord and the telephone wall jack (see the following page). The filter prevents noise and caller ID problems caused by DSL interference. Please contact your DSL service provider for more information about DSL filters.
Your product may be shipped with a protective sticker covering the handset or telephone base display - remove it before use.

The answering system announces the day and time of the message prior to playing it. Before using the answering system, set the date and time as follows. If you subscribe to caller ID service, the day, month and time are set automatically with each incoming call. The year must be set so that the day of the week can be calculated from the caller ID information. You can turn off the date and time settings of the caller ID service and use your own settings for each incoming call (see CID time synchonize section on the following page).
After a power failure or the first handset registration, the system reminds you to set the date and time for backup before entering the idle mode.
