READ THIS BEFORE INSTALLATION

Your telephone conforms to federal regulations, and you can connect it to
most telephone lines.  However, each device you connect to the phone line
draws power from the phone line.  We refer to this power draw as the
device's ringer equivalence number, or REN.  The REN is on the label on the
base's back.

If you are using more than one phone or other device on the line, add up
all the REN's.  If the total is more than five, your phone might not ring.
In rural areas, a total REN of three might impair ringer operation.  If
ringer operation is impaired, remove a device from the line.

FCC STATEMENT

This telephone complies with Part 68 of FCC Rules.  You must, upon request,
provide the FCC Registration Number and the REN to your phone company.
These numbers are on the label on the base's back.

You must not connect your phone to any of the following:

  Coin-operated systems.

  Party-line systems.

  Most electronic key phone systems.

NOTE:  Your telephone operates on standard radio frequencies, as allocated
       by the FCC.  Even though the access protection code prevents
       unauthorized use of your home line, it is possible for other radio
       units operating on similar frequencies within a certain area to
       unintentionally intercept your conversations and/or cause
       interference.  This lack of privacy can occur with any cordless
       phone.

INSTALLATION

SELECTING A LOCATION

You can set the ET-910's base on a flat surface (such as a desktop or
counter-top), mount it on a modular jack wall plate, or mount it directly
on the wall.  The base's location affects the phone's range.  If you have
a choice of several locations, try each to see which one provides the best
performance.

Select a location that is:

  Near an AC outlet.

  Near a telephone line jack.

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

  Away from wireless intercoms, alarms, and room monitors.

If the phone line jack is not a modular jack, you must update the wiring.
You can convert 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.

NOTES:  The phone company charges for the installation of the necessary
        jacks.

        The USOC number of the baseboard jack to be installed is RJ11C.

        After you mount the phone, you must install the battery pack and
        charge it for 24 hours before you use it the first time.  See
        "Preparation", on Faxback Doc. # 32937.

PLACING THE BASE ON A DESKTOP

1.  Plug one end of the supplied 7-foot modular cord into the TO TEL LINE
    jack on the back of the ET-910's base.

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

3.  Plug the ET-910's AC cord into a standard AC outlet.

4.  For the best reception, adjust the base's antenna so it stands
    straight up.

MOUNTING THE BASE ON A WALL

Using the supplied mounting bracket, you can mount the ET-910's base on a
phone jack wall plate or directly on the wall.

To prepare the bracket for mounting twist off the tabs attached to the
center of the bracket and press them securely into the holes on the narrow
end or the bracket.

Mounting on a Wall Plate

1.  Press the ET-910's AC cord under the recessed clip directly below it on
    the bottom of the phone.

2.  Plug one end of the supplied 7-inch modular cord into the TO TEL LINE
    jack, then press the cord under the other recessed clip on the bottom
    of the phone.

3.  Insert the tabs on the supplied mounting bracket into the slots on the
    base's bottom.  Then press the bracket down until it snaps into place.

4.  Press the AC cord into the top and bottom grooves on the left side of
    the bracket, press the modular cord into the center groove on the right
    side of the bracket, then plug the modular cord into the modular phone
    jack.

5.  Line up the keyhole slots on the bracket with the studs on the wall
    plate, then slide the base down onto the wall plate until it is secure.

6.  Press up on the handset holder to remove it, turn it over so its tabbed
    edge faces up, then press it back down into its slot on the base.

7.  Plug the ET-910's AC cord into a standard AC outlet.

8.  For the best reception, adjust the base's antenna so it stands straight
    up.

NOTE: If you want to remove the supplied bracket after attaching it, simply
press in the tab on each side of the bracket and lift the bracket away from
the base.

Mounting Directly on the Wall

Using a drill (not supplied) and the supplied screws and spacers, you can
easily mount your ET-910 directly on the wall.

1.  At the desired mounting location, drill two holes 3 15/16 inches apart,
    one above the other.

2.  Place a spacer over each screw, then thread a screw into each wall hole
    until the screw's head extends about 1/4 inch from the wall.

3.  Press the ET-910's AC cord under the recessed clip directly below it on
    the bottom of the phone.

4.  Plug one end of the supplied 7-foot modular cord into the TO TEL LINE
    jack, then press the cord under the other recessed clip on the bottom
    of the phone.

5.  Insert the tabs on the supplied mounting bracket into the slots on the
    base's bottom, then press the bracket down until it snaps into place.

6.  Press the AC cord into the top and bottom grooves on the left side of
    the bracket, press the modular cord into the top and bottom grooves on
    the right side of the bracket, then plug the modular cord into a
    modular phone jack.

7.  Line up the keyhole slots on the bracket with the screws on the wall,
    then slide the base down onto the screws until it is secure.

8.  Press up on the handset holder to remove it, turn it over so its tabbed
    edge faces up, then press it back down into its slot on the base.

       simply press in the tab on each side of the bracket and lift the
       bracket away from the base.
