4. Replace the cover and secure it
with the screw.
Note: The telephone automatically
tests the batteries each time it
receives a call. If
appears on the
display or the display dims, replace
the batteries.
Important: When you replace the bat-
teries, have fresh batteries on hand
before you begin. You must install
fresh batteries within 2 minutes after
removing the old batteries. Otherwise,
you might lose all the information
stored in the phone’s memory.
RESETTING THE
TELEPHONE
Before you use the telephone the first
time, or to clear all the stored informa-
tion from the telephone at any time,
press
RESET using a pointed object,
such as a straightened paper clip.
Note: Immediately after resetting the
telephone,
12--00 AM appears on
the display until you receive a call.
Then the telephone company auto-
matically sends the correct time to
update your phone’s time display.
MAKING THE
CONNECTIONS
Your System 1500 connects to a mod-
ular phone jack. Choose a location for
your phone that is near a modular
phone jack and away from normal ac-
tivities. You can place it on a desk or
mount it on a wall plate or directly on a
wall.
If your telephone wiring does not have
a modular phone jack, you can update
the wiring yourself. RadioShack stores
sell the necessary jacks and adapters
to convert older wiring methods to
modular wiring. Or, you can have the
telephone company update your tele-
phone wiring for you.
Note: The USOC number of the jack
to be installed is RJ11C for a base-
board jack, or RJ11W for a wall jack.
Installing the Phone on a
Desk
1. Plug one end of the supplied long
modular cord into the TEL. LINE
jack on the phone.
2. Plug the other end of the modular
cord into the modular phone jack.
