INSTALLATION
FOLLOW THESE PRECAUTIONS BEFORE
INSTALLATION:
1. Never install telephone wiring during a lightning storm.
2. Never install telephone jacks in wet locations unless the jack
is specifically designed for wet locations.
3. Never touch uninsulated telephone wires or terminals unless
the telephone line has been disconnected at the network
interface.
4. Use caution when installing or modifying telephone lines.
To Install Batteries
a. Open the battery door with a ball-point pen.
NOTE: You must install the batteries
BEFORE connecting the telephone to
the wall jack. If no batteries are
stalled, the Caller ID function of the
phone will not work.
b. Insert three AA alkaline batteries.
Make sure to install the batteries using the correct polarity(i.e. the "+"
symbol on the battery alligns with the "+" symbol on the unit). "SET
LANGUAGE" will appear on the display screen. This message will
remain on the screen until you install the telephone and then follow
the complete Caller ID set-up procedure.
c. Replace the battery door.
HANGING THE PHONE ON THE WALL
When the FM2552/FM2000 is wall-mounted, the HANDSET GUIDE
holds the HANDSET in place in the CRADLE.
ON A WALL PHONE PLATE:
a. Plug the short telephone line cord into
the jack in the Base bottom and into the
jack on the plate.
b. Hang the BASE on the two pins and
push the BASE down to lock it on.
c. Plug the COIL CORD into the
HANDSET and BASE jacks.
ON THE WALL WITHOUT A PLATE:
a. Install 2 screws with anchors into the
wall, one above the other, 3-1/4" apart,
extending 3/16" out from the wall, to
hold the base securely.
b. Install the long telephone line cord into
the jack in the BASE, thread it through
the groove and plug it into the modular
wall jack as shown.
c. Hang the base on the screws and pull it
down to lock it on.
d. Plug the COIL CORD into the
HANDSET and BASE jacks.
