Your phone requires a modular telephone jack and a standard electrical outlet (120V AC). The power cord is six feet long; make sure there is an electrical outlet within reach of the base. The outlet should not be controlled by a wall switch. If the switch is ever turned off, the phone will not operate.
2. CHOOSE AND MARK THE MOUNTING POSITION.
The mounting screws should screw into a wooden stud within the wall
3.INSTALL THE MOUNTING SLEEVES AND SCREWS.
Start the screw holes by lightly tapping a nail into the marks you made on the wall. Remove the nail from the wall. Now slip the mounting sleeves onto the screws as shown, with the smaller end of the sleeve toward the screw head. Insertthe screws into the holes you started. Tighten the screws until the large end of the mounting sleeve is flat against the wall.
