Selecting a Location

Before choosing a location for your new phone, read the “Installation Considerations” included in the “Precautions and Important Safety Instructions” brochure.

Applying Power to the Base

All the XC800 Series phones require the included AC adapter and an AC outlet that is not controlled by a wall switch. To relieve strain on the DC plug when the phone is placed on a desk or table, connect the adapter as shown below.
