Important: When you replace the bat- teries, have fresh batteries on hand before you begin. You must install fresh batteries within 2 minutes after removing the old batteries. Otherwise, you might lose all the information stored in the phone’s memory.
RESETTING THE
TELEPHONE
Before you use the telephone the first time, or to clear all the stored informa- tion from the telephone at any time, press RESET using a pointed object, such as a straightened paper clip.
MAKING THE
CONNECTIONS
Your System 1500 connects to a mod- ular phone jack. Choose a location for your phone that is near a modular phone jack and away from normal ac- tivities. You can place it on a desk or mount it on a wall plate or directly on a wall.
If your telephone wiring does not have a modular phone jack, you can update the wiring yourself. RadioShack stores sell the necessary jacks and adapters to convert older wiring methods to modular wiring. Or, you can have the telephone company update your tele- phone wiring for you.
Note: The USOC number of the jack to be installed is RJ11C for a base- board jack, or RJ11W for a wall jack.
Installing the Phone on a Desk
1.Plug one end of the supplied long modular cord into the TEL. LINE jack on the phone.
Note: Immediately after resetting the telephone,
2.Plug the other end of the modular cord into the modular phone jack.
