INSTALLATION

3Connect the handset cord.

Plug one end of the coiled handset cord into the jack on the left side of the phone. Plug the other end into the handset, and hang up.

4Connect the power adapter.

Use only the power adapter provided with this product. To obtain a replacement, call 1 800 222–3111.

Plug one end of the power adapter into the jack labeled ADAPTER on the back of the phone. Plug the other end into a standard electrical outlet not controlled by a wall switch.

When the test is complete, the system enters an initial setup mode (this happens the first time you plug in the unit only) and the screen displays press PROG to setup your phone. See SET UP SYSTEM FEATURES beginning on page 15.
