You might prefer a longer cord for the handset. Your local RadioShack store has a wide selection of telephone acces- sories, including longer coiled handset cords.

CONNECTING AN OPTIONAL AC ADAPTER

Your telephone operates from telephone line power. In some areas, however, the telephone line might not provide enough power to operate all of your telephone’s features. If the speakerphone’s volume is too low, even with the volume control set to its highest setting, or if the speak- erphone does not work, connect an AC adapter (RadioShack Cat. No. 273- 1454).

Cautions:

The recommended adapter supplies 6 volts DC, delivers at least 150 mil- liamps, and has a barrel plug which properly fits the phone’s DC 6V jack. Using an adapter that does not meet these specifications might damage the phone or the adapter.

To prevent damage to the adapter and the telephone, always plug the adapter into the telephone before you plug it into the AC outlet. Always unplug the AC adapter from the AC outlet first, then unplug the barrel plug from the phone.

1.Plug the adapter’s barrel plug into the DC 6V jack on the back of the telephone.

2.Route the adapter cable through the strain relief slot on the bottom of the telephone.

3.Plug the other end of the adapter in- to a standard AC outlet.
