Installation

Install the telephone base as shown below. Make sure that the electrical outlet is not controlled by a

wall switch. If you subscribe to high-speed internet service (Digital Subscriber Line - DSL) through

your telephone lines, you must have a DSL lter between the telephone base and the telephone wall

jack. The lter will prevent noise and caller ID problems caused by DSL interference. Please contact

your DSL service provider for more information about DSL lters.

Plug the bigger power adapter into the power jack at the bottom of the telephone base and the

smaller power adapters into the chargers. Route cords through slots and plug the power adapter

into an electrical outlet not controlled by a wall switch.

Plug one end of the telephone line cord into the telephone line jack at the bottom of the telephone

base. Route the telephone line cord through the slot, then plug the other end of the cord into a

telephone wall jack.

Installation

Basic operation

Installation

Install handset battery

1. Align the two holes of the battery plug with the socket pins in the handset battery compartment,

matching the red and black wires to the color-coded label, then snap the plug securely into place.

2. Place the battery in the compartment with the wires in the upper left corner.

3. Position the battery compartment cover and slide it up until it clicks into place.

For optimal performance, we recommend that you charge the handset for 16 hours. You can keep

the battery charged by returning the handset to the telephone base after each use. When the battery

power is fully depleted, a full recharge takes about 16 hours. When the battery is fully charged, it

provides approximately eight hours of talk time or four days of standly time.

• If the handset will

not be used for a

long period of time,

disconnect and

remove the battery

to prevent possible

leakage.
