Extended battery installation and replacement
Your telephony modem provides continued telephone service during power outages. The
battery backup is not intended to take the place of AC power.
Use this procedure to install or replace the backup battery.
1. Press down and pull back on the latch holding the battery door (on the bottom of your
telephony modem).
2. Pull the door toward you and set the door aside in a safe place.
1 - Latch end
CAUTION:
Risk of equipment damage
Improperly inserting the battery may
damage the battery connector in your telephony modem. Carefully follow the
instructions in the next step to avoid damage.
3. Hold the battery pack so that the guides on the battery align with the slots on your
telephony modem and slide the battery into the bay.
1 - Battery slots
2 - Battery Guides
3 - Battery pull strap
Note:
Batteries will not insert completely into your telephony modem if not
oriented correctly. The battery should slide into the bay without significant force.
Line up the slots in the battery bay with the guides on the battery and apply even
pressure on both ends of the battery.
