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 12). For optimum range
and better reception, place the telephone base in a central and open location.
If you subscribe to high-speed Internet service (DSL - digital subscriber line)
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.
STOP!
See pages 9-10 for
easy instructions.
Your product may be shipped with protective stickers covering the handset
and telephone base displays - remove them before use.

Avoid placing the telephone base too close to:
Communication devices such as television sets, VCRs, or other
•
cordless telephones.
Excessive heat sources.
•
Noise sources such as a window with traffic outside, motors, microwave
•
ovens, refrigerators, or fluorescent lighting.
Excessive dust sources such as a workshop or garage.
•
Excessive moisture.
•
Extremely low temperature.
•
•
Mechanical vibration or shock such as on top of a washing machine

Operation
During battery backup mode, the telephone base and answering system will
be disabled. The operating time is subject to the battery level of the handset
placed in the telephone base and the actual usage. For optimal performance,
you are not recommended to use the handset placed in the telephone base
when this mode is on.
Using other system handsets (Recommended):
Operate the handsets the same way as usual, except the answering system
which will be disabled.
Using the handset placed in the telephone base:
To maximize the operating time, you are not advised to use this handset. If
you do have to use it, make sure you do not lift it from the telephone base.
All operations should be done with the handset placed in the telephone base.
In this case, calls can only be made and received using the speakerphone.

Getting started
Installation options
Your telephone base is ready for tabletop use. If you want to mount your
telephone on a wall, follow the steps on this page to connect the telephone
base with a standard dual-stud telephone wall-mounting plate. You may need
a professional to install the mounting plate.
Tabletop to wall-mount installation
1. Plug the power cord and telephone line into the telephone base. If you
are using a DSL filter, plug the other end of the telephone line into the
filter. Route the telephone line cord (or DSL filter) through the wall-mount
bracket hole.
2. Position the telephone base, as shown below. Insert the extended tabs
(marked B in the following illustration) of the wall-mount bracket into the
slots on the back of the telephone base. Push the telephone base down
until it is securely in place.
3. Plug the telephone line cord (or DSL filter) into the wall jack. Plug the
power adapter into a power outlet not controlled by a wall switch.
4. Align the holes on the wall-mount bracket with the standard wall plate
and slide the wall-mount bracket down until it locks securely. Bundle the
telephone line cord and power adapter cord neatly with twist ties.
