INSTALLATION
CHOOSING A LOCATION
Select a location that is near a modular telephone jack and an AC outlet.
Notes:
•Your TAD-799 connects directly to a modular telephone line jack. If your telephone wiring does not have a modular jack, you can update it yourself using jacks and adapters available at your local RadioShack store, or have the telephone com- pany update it for you.
•The USOC number of the jack to be installed is RJ11C (or RJ11W for a wall plate jack).
Caution: The supplied AC adapter was designed specifically for your TAD-799. Use only the supplied adapter.
INSTALLING THE
BACKUP BATTERY
The TAD requires AC power to operate. However, if AC power fails, or you un- plug the TAD, a 9-volt battery (not sup- plied) provides backup power so the TAD can maintain the correct time and memory information. We recommend you use an alkaline battery, available at your local RadioShack store.
Cautions:
•Use only fresh batteries of the required size and recommended type.
•Do not mix old and new batteries, different types of batteries.
Follow these steps to install the battery.
1.Use a flat-blade screwdriver to unlatch the battery compartment cover (as shown), then slide the cover in the direction of the arrow and lift it off.
