INSTALLATION
Handset Installation
1. Plug one end of the handset cord into the jack on the side of the tele-
phone base.
2. Plug the other end of the handset cord into the handset and put the hand-
set on the telephone base with the screen facing up.
3. Lift the handset and listen for a dial tone. If there is no dial tone, see In
Case of Difficulty
at the back of this manual.
4. Set the RINGER switch on the side of the telephone base to OFF, LO, or
HI according to your preference. If it is set to OFF, this telephone will not
ring when there is an incoming call, although the NEW CALL light will
flash.
NOTES:
• The telephone works immediately after installation with the default feature
settings (see
Feature Settings Summary
on page 16). You can make and
answer calls as soon as the telephone is connected to a modular telephone
wall jack. Batteries must be installed in order to activate the caller ID fea-
tures and memory (see
Battery Installation
on page 9).
• If you subscribe to caller ID services from your local telephone service
provider, follow the instructions in
Set Home Area Code
on page 19 for
the telephone to properly recognize and dial calls. It may be necessary to
follow the instructions in
Set Local Area Codes
on page 20.
