IMPORTANT: Because cordless phones operate on electricity, you should
have at least one phone in your home that isn’t cordless, in case the power in
your home goes out.
INSTALLATION NOTE: Some cordless telephones operate at frequencies that
may cause interference to nearby TVs and VCRs. To minimize or prevent such
interference, the base of the cordless telephone should not be placed near or on
top of a TV or VCR. If interference continues, moving the cordless telephone
farther away from the TV or VCR will often reduce or eliminate the interference.
BEFORE YOU BEGIN
MODULAR JACK REQUIREMENTS
You need an RJ11 (CA11A) type modular jack, which is
the most common type of phone jack and might look like
the one pictured here. If you don’t have a modular jack,
call your local phone company to find out how to get one
installed.

1. Make sure base plate is securely
fastened.
2. Plug the power supply cord into
the POWER 9V DC jack on the
base and into an AC outlet. The
LED indicators will all light up.
This is normal operation. The
LEDs will go out after about 30
seconds.
3. Place handset in the base to
charge for 12 hours. The
CHARGE/IN USE light (on the
base) comes on to indicate that
the battery is charging. If you
don’t charge the handset battery
properly (for 12 hours) when you
first set up the phone, perfor-
mance of the battery will be
