SELECTING A LOCATION

You can place the phone on a desk top or table, or mount it on a telephone wall plate or directly on the wall. Select a lo- cation that is:

Near a telephone line jack

Out of the way of normal activities

Near an AC outlet ( only if you use an optional AC adapter; see “Con- necting an Optional AC Adapter” on Page 8)

Notes:

Your telephone connects directly to a modular telephone line jack. If your phone line jack is not a modu- lar jack, you can update the wiring yourself, using jacks and adapters available at your local RadioShack store. Or, you can let the phone company update the wiring for you.

The USOC number of the jack to be installed is RJ11C (RJ11W if you want to mount it on a wall plate).

Placing the Phone on a

Desk Top

Plug one end of the supplied long modu- lar cord into the TEL LINE jack on the back of the phone. Then plug the other end into a modular phone line jack.

Mounting the Phone on a Wall

You can mount your telephone on a wall plate, or you can mount it directly on the wall using two screws (not supplied) with heads that fit into the keyhole slots on the bottom of the telephone.

Note: If you are mounting the phone di- rectly on the wall, drill two holes 315/16 inches (100 mm) apart. Thread the two screws into the wall, letting the heads extend about 1/8 inch (3 mm).
