Connections and Setup

Installing the Phone

1.Choose an area near an electrical outlet and telephone wall jack. Your phone should be placed on a level surface, such as a table top or desk.

2.Install 4 AAA-size alkaline batteries (not included) for back up power in the event of a power failure.

CAUTION: Unit will not work if electrical power fails and batteries are depleted or not installed. Therefore it is important that you replace them when “REPLACE BATTERY” shows in display

in order to maintain unit operation. As a precaution, you may want to write down any stored information you do not want erased.

Open the battery compartment door located on the bottom of the phone by inserting a flathead screw driver into the battery door latch area and gently tilting the screw driver away from the battery door to release the latch.

Insert the batteries as shown on the diagram inside the battery compartment.

Snap the battery compartment door back into place.

IMPORTANT: If you are not going to use the telephone for more than 30 days, remove the batteries because they can leak and damage the unit.

3.Connect the AC power adaptor to an electrical outlet and the DC connector to the back of the base.

CAUTION: To reduce risk of personal injury, fire, or damage use only the 5-2719 power adaptor listed in the user’s guide. This power adaptor is intended to be correctly orientated in a vertical or floor mount position.
