CONNECTING THE

HANDSET

Plug one end of the supplied coiled cord into the modular jack on the left side of the phone and the other end into the modular jack on the handset. Then place the handset on the base.

Note: Your local RadioShack store sells a variety of longer coiled handset cords, which are especially useful when you mount the phone on the wall.

3.Press any number except 0.

Note: If your phone system requires that you dial an access code (9, for example) before you dial an outside number, do not press the access code either.

If the dial tone stops, you have touch-tone service. If the dial tone continues, you have pulse service.

4.If you have pulse service, set T/P to P. Otherwise, leave it set to T.

SETTING THE RINGER VOLUME

RINGER controls the volume of the phone’s ring. To adjust the ringer vol- ume, set RINGER to HI or LO.

SETTING THE DIALING MODE

Set T/P (Tone/Pulse) for the type of service you have. If you are not sure which type you have, do this simple test.

1. Be sure T/P is set to T.

If you do not want the ringer to sound, set RINGER to OFF. You can still make calls with the ringer off, and you can an- swer calls if you hear another phone on the same phone line ring or if you see the NEW CALL indicator flashing.
