Direct wall plate mounting

If you don’t have a standard wall plate, you can mount your base directly
to the wall. Before doing this, consider the following:
• Avoid electrical cables, pipes, or other items behind the mounting location

that could cause a hazard when inserting screws into the wall.

• Try to mount your phone within 10 - 15 feet of a working phone jack to

avoid excessive cord lengths.

• Make sure the wall material is capable of supporting the weight of the

base and handset.

• Use #10 screws (minimum length of 1-3/8 inches) with anchoring devices

suitable for the wall material where the base unit will be placed.

1) Insert two mounting screws into the wall, (with

their appropriate anchoring device), 3-15/16
inches apart. Allow about 1/8 of an inch
between the wall and screwheads for mounting
the base.

2) Refer to steps 1 through 7 on page 16 to mount

the base.
