•Use a screwdriver to loosen and lift up the battery compartment door located on the bottom of the phone.

•Insert the batteries as shown on the diagram inside the battery compartment.

•Snap the battery compartment door back into place and tighten the screw.

NOTE: If the low battery icon appears in the display, you need to replace the batteries. It is important that you replace them as soon as possible to maintain unit operation when electrical power is off. As a precaution, you may want to write down any stored information you do not want erased.

IMPORTANT: If you are not going to use the telephone for more than 30 days, remove the batteries because they can leak and damage the unit.
