Wall Installation

Note: Be sure to follow the steps below in order. Do not plug the phone into electrical power until all the cords are properly connected to the phone.

1Connect the line cord(s) to the telephone.

If you have a two-line jack, use only the line cord with the clear modular plugs on each end. Plug one end into the jack labeled L1 OR L1/2 on the back of the telephone.

If you have two separate jacks, use both line cords. Leave

the cord with the blue plugs bundled. Insert one end of this cord into the jack labeled

L1 OR L1/2 on the back of the telephone. Unbundle the cord with the clear plugs. Insert

one end of this cord into the jack labeled L2 on the back of the telephone.

2 Wrap the line cord(s) as shown.

3Attach the base.

4Reverse the handset tab.

Hold down the switchhook, and slide the tab up and out of its slot. Turn the tab so that the end with the “hook” is up, then insert the tab back into its slot.
