Installing the Phone
1.   Choose an area near an electrical outlet and 
telephone wall jack. Your phone should be placed 
on a level surface, such as a table top or desk.
2.   Install 4 AAA-size alkaline batteries (not 
included) for back up power in the event of a 
power failure.
CAUTION: Unit will not work if electrical power 
fails and batteries are depleted or not installed. 
Therefore it is important that you replace them 
when “REPLACE BATTERY” shows in display in order 
to maintain unit operation. As a precaution, you 
may want to write down any stored information you 
do not want erased.
• Open the battery compartment door located on
the bottom of the phone by inserting a flathead
screw driver into the battery door latch area and
gently tilting the screw driver away from the
battery door to release the latch.
• Insert the batteries as shown on the diagram
inside the battery compartment.
• Snap the battery compartment door back into
place.
IMPORTANT: If you are not going to use the telephone for 
more than 30 days, remove the batteries because they can 
leak and damage the unit.
3.   Connect the AC power adaptor to an electrical 
outlet and the plug connector to the back of the 
base.
