Installation

Note: To mount the phone directly on a wall,
you need two screws of at least 1

inch long

(not supplied) with heads that fit into the key-
hole slots on the bottom of the base.

Follow the steps under “On a Wall Plate or
Wall” on Page 9, then apply these additional
instructions for placement on a wall.

1. Drill two holes 3

inches (100 mm) apart.
Then thread a screw into
each hole, letting the
heads extend about

inch (3 mm) from the wall.

2. Plug one end of the sup-

plied long modular cord
into the

TEL LINE

jack on the back of the

base and route the adapter cable and
modular cords through the grooves on
the base.

3. Align the base’s keyhole slots with the

mounting screws and slide the base
downward to secure it.

CONNECTING, CHARGING,
AND REPLACING THE
BATTERY PACK

The telephone comes with a rechargeable
nickel-cadmium battery pack installed in the
handset, but not connected. Before using
your phone, you must connect the battery
pack, then charge it for about 24 hours.

Follow these steps to connect the battery
pack.

1. Press down and slide off the battery

pack compartment cover.

2. Lift the battery pack out of the compart-

ment.

3. Plug the battery pack’s connector into

the socket in the compartment (the con-
nector fits only one way), replace the
battery pack, then replace the cover.

To charge the battery pack, place the hand-
set either up or down on the base. The
CHARGE/IN USE indicator on the base
lights and

the handset is on the base, even if the bat-
tery pack is not properly connected.
