Direct wall mounting

If you don't have a standard wall plate, you can mount your phone directly to the wall. Before doing this, consider the following:

•Avoid electrical cables, pipes, or other items behind the mounting location that could cause a hazard when inserting screws into the wall.

•Try to mount your phone within 5 feet of a working phone jack to avoid excessive lengths.

•Make sure the wall material is capable of supporting the weight of the base and handset.

•Use #10 screws (minimum length of 1-3/8 inches) with anchoring devices suitable for the wall material where the main base unit will be placed.

1)Insert two mounting screws into the wall (with their appropriate anchoring device), 3-15/16 inches apart.

Allow about 1/8 of an inch between the wall and screw heads for mounting the phone.

2) Refer to steps 1 through 6 on page 12 to mount the telephone.
