•Mount the phone (see ).
If your phone does not work, disconnect it from the phone line, remove the bat- teries, then repeat the above sequence.
INSTALLING BACKUP BATTERIES
Your phone requires four AA batteries (not supplied) to protect its memory. We recommend you use Radio Shack alka- line batteries.
Cautions:
•Use only fresh batteries of the required size and type.
•Do not mix old and new batteries, different types of batteries (stan- dard, alkaline, or rechargeable), or rechargeable batteries of different capacities.
•Never leave dead or weak batteries in the phone.
•Dispose of old batteries promptly; do not bury or burn them.
Follow these steps to install batteries.
