INSTALLATION
INSTALLING THE
HANDSET’S
ANTENNA
Insert the antenna into the
hole on the top of the hand-
set, then twist the antenna
clockwise until it is secure.
SELECTING A LOCATION
You can place the phone on a desk top,
or mount it on a wall plate or directly on
a wall. Select a location that is:
• near an AC outlet
• near a telephone line jack
• away from electrical machinery,
electrical appliances, metal walls or
filing cabinets, wireless intercoms,
alarms, and room monitors
• away from other cordless phones
The base’s location affects the phone’s
range. If you have a choice of several lo-
cations, try each to see which provides
the best performance.
Notes:
• Your telephone connects directly to
a modular telephone line jack. If
your phone line jack is not a modu-
lar jack, you can update the wiring
yourself, using jacks and adapters
available at your local RadioShack
store. Or, you can let the phone
company update the wiring for you.
• The USOC number of the jack to be
installed is RJ11C (RJ11W if you
want to mount it on a wall plate).
Power the ET-927 using the supplied
9V, 500-mA AC adapter.
Cautions:
You must use a Class 2
power source that supplies
9V DC and delivers at least
500 mA. Its center tip must be set to
positive and its plug must fit the ET-
927's
DC 9V jack. The supplied
adapter meets these specifications.
Using an adapter that does not meet
these specifications could damage
the phone or the adapter.
• Always connect the AC adapter to
the ET-927 before you connect it to
AC power. When you finish, discon-
nect the adapter from AC power be-
fore you disconnect it from the
phone.
Placing on a Desk Top
1. Push in the two tabs on the top of
the mounting bracket, then lift off
just the upper part of the bracket.
2. Insert the supplied AC adapter’s
barrel plug into the DC 9V jack on
