1 Connect line cord(s) to telephone.
• If you have a two-line jack, use only the line
cord with the clear modular plugs on each
end. Plug one end into the jack labeled
L1
OR L1/L2 on the back of the telephone.
• If you have two separate jacks, use both line
cords. Insert one end of the cord with the
blue plugs into the jack labeled
L1 OR L1/L2
on the back of the telephone. Insert one end
of the cord with the clear plugs into the jack
labeled
L2 on the back of the telephone.

Turn the base so that the larger end of the base is
toward the top of the telephone. Attach the base
by inserting the tabs into the slots. Push down on
the large end of the base to lock it into place.
3 Connect the line cord(s) to your modular
jack(s).
• If you have a two-line jack, plug the
free end of the line cord into a modular
telephone jack. Make sure the cord snaps
firmly into place.
• If you have two separate jacks, plug the
free end of the cord with the blue plugs into
the modular jack for Line 1. Plug the free
end of the cord with the clear plugs into the
modular telephone jack for Line 2. Make sure
the cords snap firmly into place.

Data Port
If you want to connect another device (such as a
modem or fax machine) to the wall jack, you can use
the jack on the phone labeled
DATA L2. The data port
uses Line 2; a call picked up on Line 2 at another
extension may interrupt a fax, modem, or message
transmission.

You can use this telephone hands-free
when you install any AT&T 2.5 mm
headset, purchased separately.
Plug the headset into the jack.
