Set Dial Mode

This telephone comes set for touch tone dialing. Use the Dial Mode switch on the bottom of the phone to select TT (touch tone) or DP (dial pulse), depending on your service. When set to Dial Pulse mode, the phone can be switched temporarily to Touch Tone mode for access to services that require tone signaling, including some tone activated computer systems. To switch from pulse to tone dialing during a call, see “Temporary Tone”in the TELEPHONE OPERATION section of this manual.

Table/Desk Installation

1Remove the base.

Slide the base sideways as shown by the REMOVE arrow.

2Connect the long line cord to telephone.

Plug the long line cord into the LINE jack in the center of the bottom of the set.

3Reinstall the base.

Turn the base so the larger end is toward the top of the telephone. Feed the line cord through the hole in the larger end of the base and insert the base tabs into the slots. Then slide sideways in the direction of the INSTALL arrow to lock the base into the phone. Turn the telephone right side up; it should sit flat on your table during use.

4Connect the line cord to a modular wall jack.

Plug the free end of the line cord into a modular wall jack. Make sure it snaps firmly into place.

5Connect the handset to the telephone.

Plug one end of the coiled cord into the handset jack on the bottom of the set near the right side. Press the cord down and through the channel to the side. Plug the other end of the coiled cord into the handset, then hang up.

6Connect the power cord.

Plug the power cord into the jack labeled POWER on the back of the telephone and into an electrical outlet not controlled by a wall switch. Fit the power cord behind the strain relief tab. The Message Window flashes C to indicate that you need to set the clock (see “Setting the Clock” in the ANSWERING SYSTEM OPERATION section of this manual).

Use only the power cord supplied with this product. If you need a replacement, call 1 800 222–3111. Input: 120V, 60Hz.

Output: 9V AC, 400 mA.

7Check for dial tone.

Lift the handset and listen for a dial tone. If you don’t hear a dial tone, see
