Connecting Your Phone

Adjusting the Footstand

To change the angle of the phone base, adjust the footstand while pressing the footstand button.

Adjusting the Handset Rest

Cisco recommends adjusting the handset rest, particularly when wall mounting the phone, as this will ensure that the receiver will not readily slip out of the cradle. See the table below for instructions.

Set the handset aside and pull the square plastic tab from the handset rest.

Rotate the tab 180 degrees.

Slide the tab back into the handset rest. An extension protrudes from the top of the rotated tab. Return the handset to the handset rest.

Registering with TAPS

After your phone is connected to the network, your system administrator might ask you to auto-register your phone using TAPS (Tool for Auto-Registered Phones Support). TAPS might be used for a new phone or to replace an existing phone.

To register with TAPS, pick up the handset, enter the TAPS extension provided by your system administrator, and follow the voice prompts. You might need to enter your entire extension, including the area code. After your phone displays a confirmation message, hang up. The phone will re-start.
