Getting started

Tabletop installation

Two one-line wall jacks

If there are two one-line wall jacks, use both long line cords. Plug one end
of the clear line cord into the jack labeled

L1 or L1/L2 on the back of the

telephone base. Then, plug the other end into the wall jack for Line 1. Plug
one end of the black line cord into the jack labeled

L2 or DATA on the back

of the telephone base. Then, plug the other end into the wall jack for Line 2.
Make sure the line cords are plugged firmly into the telephone base and the
wall jack.

1. Connect the line cords to the

telephone base and wall jacks.

2. Plug one end of the coiled

handset cord into the handset.
Plug the other end into the jack
on the left side of the telephone
base.

3. To determine which line is in use,

press

LINE 1 and call one of the

telephone numbers. If there is a
busy signal, Line 1 is the number
you called. If Line 2 rings, it is
the number you called.

NOTE: This product is designed to operate optimally with two telephone lines.

If you choose to install only one telephone line, the telephone will continue to
operate normally as long as the unused line is not selected. If you experience diffi-
culty, make sure you have pressed the correct

LINE key.
