SELECTING A LOCATION

You can place the phone on a desk or mount it on a wall. Select a location 
that meets these requirements:

    Near an AC outlet

    Near a telephone line jack

    Out of the way of normal activities

    Away from electrical machinery, electrical appliances, and metal walls
    or filing cabinets.

    Away from wireless intercoms, alarms, and room monitors.

The case's location affects the phone's range. If you have a choice of 
several locations, try each one to see which one provides the best 
performance.

NOTE:  If the phone line jack is not a modular jack, you must update the 
       wiring yourself, using jacks and adapters available at your local
       Radio Shack store. Or you can let the phone company update the
       wiring for you.  The phone company will charge you for the
       installation of the necessary jacks.  The USOC number is RJ11C for a
       baseboard jack or RJ11W for a wall jack.

PLACING THE BASE ON A DESK TOP

Follow these steps to place the base on a desk, shelf, or table.

1.  Plug the end of the supplied cord into the phone jack on the back of
    the base.

2.  Plug the modular cord's other end into a modular phone line jack.

3.  Insert the supplied AC adapter's barrel plug into the DC 12V jack on
    the back of the base.

4.  Plug the adapter into a standard AC outlet.

CAUTION:  You must use a class II, 120V AC/12V DC adapter that delivers 
          at least 200 milliamps. Its plug must correctly fit the phone's
          DC 12V jack.  The supplied adapter meets these requirements.
          Using an adapter that does not meet these requirements could
          damage the phone or the adapter.

MOUNTING THE BASE ON A WALL PLATE

You need the supplied short modular cord and a standard wall plate for this
mounting method.

1.  Plug one end of the supplied short modular cord into the phone jack
    on the back of the base.

2.  Route the short cord downward through the top left slot on the base's
    bottom and under the clips.

3.  Attach the bracket to the bottom of the base.

4.  Route the other end of the short cord through the hole in the supplied
    bracket's center.

5.  Insert the supplied AC adapter's barrel plug into the back of the base.
    Then route the adapter's cord through the right slot on the base's 
    bottom and under the clips as shown. Plug the modular cord into the
    wall plate's jack.

6.  Align the bracket's keyhole slots with the wall plate studs and slide 
    the base downward to secure it.
7.  Press and lift out the handset holder. Rotate the holder 180 degrees as
    shown, and then snap it back into place so that it holds the handset.

NOTE:  If you later wish to mount the base on a desktop, press PUSH and 
       slide the bracket down to remove it from the base's bottom.

MOUNTING THE BASE DIRECTLY ON THE WALL

You will need two (2) wood screws ( not supplied ) for this mounting
method.

1.  Drill two holes 3 15/16 inches apart. Then thread a screw into each 
    hole letting the heads extend about 1/4 inch from the wall.

2.  Plug one end of the supplied modular cord into the phone jack on the
    bottom of the base.

3.  On the bottom of the base, route the modular cord downward and under 
    the left slot's clips.

4.  Attach the supplied bracket to the bottom of the base.

5.  Insert the supplied AC adapter's barrel plug into the DC 12V jack on
    the back of the base. Then route the adapter's cord through the right
    slot on the base's bottom and under the clips. Plug the adapter into a
    standard AC outlet. Plug the modular cord into a modular phone line
    jack.

6.  Align the keyhole slots with the base mounting screws and slide the 
    base downward to secure it.

7.  Press and lift out the handset holder. Rotate it 180 degrees and then
    snap it back into place so it holds the handset.

NOTE:  To remove the bracket to mount the base on a desktop, press PUSH
       and slide the bracket down to remove it from the base's bottom.
