Installing the Base Station

Installing the Backup Batteries on Base Unit

To avoid power outage, you can install (four) AAA batteries (not included in sales) into the base as the backup.

1.Remove the battery compartment cover (located on the bottom of the base).

2.Follow the battery installation display and insert (four) AAA batteries inside the compartment.

3.Put the battery compartment cover back into place.

Connecting the Base Station

1.Choose an area near an electrical outlet and a telephone wall jack (either two RJ11 or one RJ14 type), and place your cordless telephone on a level surface, such as a desktop or tabletop, or you may mount

it on the wall.

2.Plug the AC power converter into the electrical outlet and the DC connector into the jack on the back of the base.

3.Plug one end of a telephone line cord

into the TEL LINE 1 jack on the back of the base and the other end into the modular wall jack for Line 1. Plug the other telephone line cord into the TEL LINE 2 jack on the back of the base and the other end into modular wall jack for Line 2.

NOTE: If you have only one wall jack for the both lines, use the TEL LINE 1/L1 + L2 jack on the back of base.

4.Place the handset in the base cradle. The charge/in use indicator turns on, verifying the battery is charging. HANDSET 1 shows in the handset’s display after approximately 2 minutes.

5.Allow the phone to charge for 16 hours prior to first use. If you don’t properly charge the phone, battery performance is compromised.

CAUTION: To reduce risk of personal injury, fire, or damage use only the 5-2760 power adaptor listed in the user’s guide. This power adaptor is intended to be correctly orientated in a vertical or floor mount position.
