2Plug one end of the line cord into the line jack on the bottom of the telephone.

3Feed the line cord through the line cord routing channel.

4Turn the telephone right-side up and place it on your desk or table.

5Plug one end of the coiled handset cord into the handset jack on the side of the telephone.

6Plug the other end of the handset cord into the handset.

7Hang up the handset.

8Do one of the following:

—If you are using an 8101, 8102M, or 8110M, plug the free end of the line cord into a modular wall jack.

—If you are using an 8103, 8104, or 8111, plug the free end of the line cord into the PHONE jack on the power supply. Then, plug the power supply cord into the LINE jack on the power supply and plug the other end of the power supply cord into the modular wall jack.

9Lift the handset and listen for dial tone.

10Set the Ringer Volume Control switch and the Tone Selectors to the settings you want.

Wall Installation

Use the following directions to mount the telephone on a standard wallphone jack with mounting studs.

1You must reverse the handset tab (which holds the handset when you hang up).

•Hold down the switchhook and slide the handset tab up and out of its slot.

•Turn the tab so that the curved end is facing up.

•Insert the tab back into its slot.

2Turn the telephone upside down so that you can see the bottom of the telephone.

3Remove the mounting base by pushing in on the triangle at the center of the large end of the base and then lifting the base off the telephone.

4Turn the base so the larger end is down.

5Place the base on the wall-jack mounting studs and pull down until it is secure.

6Plug one end of the line cord into the line jack on the bottom of the telephone.

Note: You may prefer to use an 8-inch line cord rather than the 7- foot cord provided with the telephone. If you use the 7-foot cord, you will need to place it into the back of the telephone in its original coiled position.

7Plug the free end of the line cord into the modular wall jack.

8Plug one end of the coiled handset cord into the handset jack on the side of the telephone.

9Place the telephone against the base and push down so that the base locking tab slides into the slot at the top of the telephone.

10Push in on the triangle at the bottom center of the base to lock the bottom of the telephone into place.

11Plug the free end of the coiled handset cord into the handset and hang up the handset.

12Lift the handset and listen for dial tone.

13Set the Ringer Volume Control switch and Tone Selectors to the settings you want.

1Remove the plastic cover, which fits over the designation card, by placing your finger in the finger slot on the right side of the telephone and lifting up.

2Place the plastic cover aside, and remove the blank designation card from the telephone.

3In the blank space next to the appropriate Programmable Dialing button, write or type the name, telephone number, or dialed feature that you want to store there.

4Place the designation card on the telephone. Replace the plastic cover over the card by fitting the cover’s bottom tabs into the slots on the telephone and pressing down, allowing the tabs on the top to snap into place.

Removing and Covering the Auto Answer Button

If you have an 8110M or 8111 telephone, you may want to disable the Auto Answer button ( Auto ) so that it cannot be activated accidentally. Follow this procedure to remove the Auto Answer button and then cover the resulting opening.

Note: To complete this procedure, you will need the slot cover which is shipped in the box with the telephone.

1 Press Auto so that the button is in the “up” position

2Lift the button from its slot on the face of the telephone. (You will probably want to use a set of needlenose pliers for this task.)

3Take the slot cover (provided with the telephone) and place it in a horizontal position in the empty slot. Be sure that the cap is snug with the face of the telephone.

Using Adjunct Equipment With The 8102M or 8104

Note: The installation of adjunct equipment (such as the S201A Speakerphone or 500A Headset Adapter) with the 8102M or 8104 telephone is different from installation with other telephones.

To connect adjunct equipment to the 8102M or 8104 telephone

1Plug one end of the adjunct cord into the adjunct equipment.

2Plug the other end of the adjunct cord into the Adjunct jack on the rear of the 8102M or 8104 telephone.

3Plug one end of the adjunct power cord into the Adjunct Power jack on the bottom of the 8102M or 8104 telephone.

4Plug the free end of the adjunct power cord into the adjunct power supply.

Using the 500A Headset Adapter with the 8102M or 8104

To answer calls using the 500A Headset Adapter

To answer a call with the headset adapter, press the

On/Quiet button. (The green light next to the button goes on.) To mute the handset or headset adapter, you must hold down the On/Quiet button. (The green light next to the button stays on for as long as the button is held down.) When you want the other party to hear you again, you can remove your finger from the On/Quiet button. (The light goes off.)

To end a call, press the Off button on the headset adapter.

To place a call, using the 500A Headset Adapter

To go off-hook to place a call, press the On/Quiet button and dial the number using the dial pad, press Redial , or use the appropriate programmable dialing button. Flash works the same with the headset adapter as it would with a handset.

To put a call hold, with an attached headset adapter

Press Hold on the 8102M or 8104. (Note that the green light next to the On/Quiet button on the headset adapter remains on, even though the call is on hold.) To retrieve the held call, you must press the Off button, and then within 2 seconds, press the On/Quiet button. (The red Hold light on the 8102M or 8104 goes off.)
