Battery Backup Feature

The battery backup allows you to make and receive calls during a power failure. You can use any handset or the base, just as you would normally.

Install the backup battery in the base

1) Open the battery case cover by pressing the release button on the bottom of the base as shown.

2) Plug the battery connector (red and black wires) into the jack inside the battery compartment. (The connector notches fit into the grooves of the jack only one way). Match the wire colors to the polarity label in the battery compartment, connect the battery and listen for a click to insure connection.

3) Make sure you have a good connection by gently pulling on the battery wires. If the connection is secure, the battery jack will remain in place.

4)Place the battery case cover back on the base.

5)Align the tabs on the cover with the grooves on the base, and

press down the cover until it clicks into place.
