Getting started

Telephone base & charger installation

Install the telephone base as shown below. Make sure that the electrical outlet is not controlled by a wall switch.

If you subscribe to high-speed internet service (Digital Subscriber Line - DSL) through your telephone lines, you must have a DSL filter between the telephone base and the telephone wall jack. The filter will prevent noise and caller ID problems caused by DSL interference. Please contact your DSL service provider for more information about DSL filters.

The telephone base comes with the mounting bracket installed for desktop use. Also, the telephone line cord and the power adapter are already plugged into the telephone base. If you want to change to wall mounting installation, see page 10 for details.
