▼Direct wall mounting
If you don't have a standard wall plate, you can mount your phone directly to the wall. Before doing this, consider the following:
●Select a location away from electrical cables, pipes, or other items behind the mounting location that could cause a hazard when inserting the screws into the wall.
●Mount your phone near a working phone jack to avoid excessive cord lengths
●Make sure the wall material is capable of supporting the weight of the base and the handset.
