To connect the base station, follow these instructions:

1. If you have a landline, connect a RJ-11 telephone line cord (included) to the LINE port of the base station. 

Then connect the other end to your telephone wall jack. If only the landline is connected you can only make 
and receive calls over the landline.

2. Connect the Ethernet RJ-45 cable (included) to the Ethernet port of the base station. Then connect the other 

end to a network Ethernet jack. If only the Ethernet cable is connected, you can only make and receive 
Skype or SkypeIn calls.

3. Connect the included power adapter to the power port of the base station. Then plug the power adapter into 

an electrical outlet.

When the handset is fully charged, press and release the Power/End Call key; this will power on the handset. To 
power off the handset, press the Power/End Call key until you will see the Skype menu. Scroll to Switch Off. 
Press Select and the phone will power off.

Standby mode is when the phone is on, but not in use. In standby mode your phone displays signal strength,
