MOUNTING THE PHONE
Note: The adapter powers the phone’s neon light and is
not needed for phone operation.
Cautions:
• Always unplug the adapter from the AC outlet before
you unplug the other end from the phone.
• The supplied AC adapter supplies 12 volts, delivers at
least 400 milliamps, and has a plug which properly fits
the phone’s DC 12V jack. Using an adapter that does
not meet these specifications could damage the phone
or the adapter.

Set the ringer to sound
a high- or low-volume

all. You can make calls
with the ringer off, and
you can receive calls if
you hear another phone

ing.
Set to TONE or PULSE to
match the type of service
you have.
If you have pulse (rotary)
service, you can set it to
TONE

call to use tone services,
such as bank-by-phone.
Use a paper clip or other

Then write your phone number
