Your telephone connects directly to a modular telephone line jack. If your telephone wiring does not have a modular jack, you can update the wiring yourself using jacks and adapters (available at your local RadioShack store), or have the telephone company update the wiring for you. You must use compatible modular jacks that are compliant with Part 68 of FCC Rules. Ô

1.Plug one end of the supplied long modular cord into the TEL LINE jack on the back of the base.
2.Plug the modular cord’s other end into a modular phone line jack.
3.Insert the supplied AC adapter’s barrel plug into the DC IN 9V jack on the back of the base.
4.Route the adapter’s cord through the strain relief slot on the base, then plug the adapter into a standard AC outlet.
On a Wall Plate or Wall
To mount the phone directly on a wall, you need two screws (not supplied) with heads that fit into the keyhole slots on the bracket. Drill two holes 315/16 inches apart. Thread a screw into each hole, letting the heads extend about 1/8 inch.
