Installing Your System
Step 3: Install Desk/Table Top Phones (Continued)
3 Connect Handset
Plug either end of the coiled handset cord into the handset and the other end into the jack on the side of the telephone. Place the handset in the cradle.
4 Connect Power Cord
Plug the AC power cord into the adapter jack on the bottom of the telephone. Thread the power cord into the recessed groove. Plug the AC adapter into an electrical outlet not con- trolled by a wall switch.
5 Assign a Station Number
Refer to page 8 for detailed instructions on assigning a station number.
6 Install a 9-Volt Battery (Optional)
It is not necessary for you to install a battery in your Epic telephone for it to function normally. In fact, a battery is not even needed to pre- serve your memory dial numbers in the event of a power failure. This is because all memory dial numbers are stored in a static memory which retains its contents even with no electri- cal power. The only purpose of having a bat- tery installed is so that the telephone itself can function for up to two hours in the event of a power failure. You may wish to install a battery in at least one Epic phone for emergency oper- ation, or have another standard phone avail- able. If you wish to install a battery, refer to page 68 for detailed instructions.
7 Verify Proper Installation
IMPORTANT: Please remember to perform the procedure on page 9, after you assign each station number, to verify that each telephone is properly installed.
