Installing the Phone
1. Choose an area near an electrical outlet and
telephone wall jack. Your phone should be placed
on a level surface, such as a table top or desk.
2. Install 4 AAA-size alkaline batteries (not
included) for back up power in the event of a
power failure.
CAUTION: Unit will not work if electrical power
fails and batteries are depleted or not installed.
Therefore it is important that you replace them
when “REPLACE BATTERY” shows in display in order
to maintain unit operation. As a precaution, you
may want to write down any stored information you
do not want erased.
• Open the battery compartment door located on
the bottom of the phone by inserting a flathead
screw driver into the battery door latch area and
gently tilting the screw driver away from the
battery door to release the latch.
• Insert the batteries as shown on the diagram
inside the battery compartment.
• Snap the battery compartment door back into
place.
IMPORTANT: If you are not going to use the telephone for
more than 30 days, remove the batteries because they can
leak and damage the unit.
3. Connect the AC power adaptor to an electrical
outlet and the plug connector to the back of the
base.
