Consider these safety guidelines before connecting the telephone cords:
CAUTION:
lNever install telephone wiring during a lightning storm.
lNever touch uninsulated telephone wires or terminals unless the telephone line has been disconnected.
lUse caution when installing or modifying telephone lines.

All the XCA650/XCA750 phones require an AC outlet and the included AC Adapter. To relieve strain on the DC plug when the phone is placed on a desk or table, connect the adapter as shown below.
Wrap the power cord around the convenient notch on the bottom.
Important: Place the power cord so that it does not create a trip hazard, or where if could become chafed and create a fire or other electrical hazards.
