Whether it will hang on a wall or sit on a flat desk or table top will determine how the phone should be assembled. A wall phone jack and a standard wall power outlet are required for operation and should be close by. 2. Connect the necessary cord and components. See Page 13. 3. Allow the battery to charge twelve (12) hours before usage. bATTEry Battery must be initially charged for a full twelve (12) hours before first use. Failure to fully charge the battery may result in the battery developing a memory. If the battery develops a memory, it will hold less charge with each following charge. Eventually the battery would have to be replaced prematurely. To install the battery:

Connect the small white plug into the slot located inside the battery compartment on the back of the handset. Take the battery compartment cover provided and place over the battery and slide to snap it closed. MoUnTinG Plug one end of the long telephone line cord into the jack marked LINE located on the back of the telephone. Plug the other end into the telephone wall jack. Insert the plug of the AC adapter into the jack marked AC Adapter on the back of the base unit. Then plug the AC adapter into the wall outlet. Place the handset inside the cradle. The handset should sit in a vertical orientation, where the screen faces outward. At this point the phone should be ready to use. Press the speaker phone button on the base and listen for a dial tone. If the unit does not light up at all, check the AC Adapter connections on the back of the phone and into the wall. If the unit lights up but there is no dial tone, check the telephone cord connections to ensure they are secure. If there is still no dial tone, test the unit using a different wall jack. 14 inSTALLATion Wall Mounting instructions The phone unit may be mounted on a standard wall plate. This will require the usage of the wall mount bracket and the short telephone line cord. Remove the insert in the cradle of the base. Push the small tab on the back of the insert and lift the insert away from the base. To install the wall mount bracket, insert the four (4) tabs of the bracket into the slots on the bottom of the base.
