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 DC connector to the back of the
base.
CAUTION: To reduce risk of personal injury,
fire, or damage use only the 5-2719 power
adaptor listed in the user’s guide. This power
adaptor is intended to be correctly orientated
in a vertical or floor mount position.
