Getting started

Telephone base installation

Install the telephone as shown below. Choose a location where the telephone is not exposed to excessive heat, cold, dust or moisture.

If you subscribe to high-speed Internet service (Digital Subscriber Line - DSL) through your telephone lines, you must install a DSL filter between the telephone base and the telephone wall jack. The filter prevents noise and caller ID problems caused by DSL interference. Please contact your DSL service provider for more information about DSL filters.

1.Plug one end of the telephone line cord into the telephone jack at the back of the telephone.

2.The small end of the power adapter has been plugged into the power jack in the back of the telephone at the factory. Double check that it has been plugged in firmly.

3.Route the cord through the slot as shown to the right.

4.Plug the other end of the telephone line cord into a telephone jack.

5.Plug the large end of the power adapter into an electrical outlet not controlled by a wall switch.
