Installing and Replacing the Batteries
Your Caller ID phone uses 4 AA-size alkaline batteries for receiving and storing Caller ID
records and for storing the numbers you use for memory dialing, pulse dialing, and redial.
IMPORTANT: You will have approximately 90 seconds to replace
the batteries before the memories stored are lost. Please read the
instructions before replacing the batteries and have the batteries
ready to be inserted beforehand.
IMPORTANT: If you are not going to use the telephone for more than
30 days, remove the batteries because they may leak and damage the
unit.
1. If the telephone line cord is connected, disconnect it
from the base unit.
2. Release latch on battery compartments and remove
cover.
3. Insert 4 AA-size alkaline batteries as shown on the
diagram in the battery compartments.
4. Snap the battery compartment doors back into place
and replace the mounting bracket.
5. If the line cord was previously connected, re-attach it
to the unit and check your memory locations.
NOTE: If the low battery icon appears in the display, you need to
replace the batteries. It is important that you replace the batteries as
soon as possible in order to maintain Caller ID operation.
Installing the Phone
Your phone should be placed on a level surface, such as a desk or table top, or you can
mount it on a wall. A wall mounting pedestal is packaged with your phone.
Connecting the Handset
1. Connect one end of the coiled handset cord to the jack on the handset.
2. Plug the other end of the coiled handset cord to the jack on the base.
3. Place the handset in the cradle.
Connecting the Telephone Line
1. Connect one end of the straight telephone line cord to the jack on the back of the base.
2. Connect the other end to a wall phone
jack.
3. Set the ringer volume switch located
at the back of the base to the desired
loudness.
OFF - Telephone will not ring.
LO - Sound will be lowest.
HI - Sound will be loudest.
NOTE: The unit is properly installed if you pick up the handset and hear
the dial tone. Otherwise, recheck all installation steps.
Wall Mounting
Your speakerphone can also be mounted on a wall plate (not included).
NOTE: To prevent the handset from falling out of the cradle while the
phone is hanging on the wall, you must rotate the handset hook 180°
(located on the base). (See diagram below)
Attaching the Wall Mounting Pedestal
• Rotate the hook 180°. (Refer to Dia. 1A)
• Turn the phone over so that the bottom of the base is facing
up and the thickest end is pointing away from you.
• If desired gather the extra telephone line cord together and
store inside the wall mounting pedestal, and then thread the
line cord through the grooves on the pedestal according to
the illustration.
• With the rounded end of the pedestal pointing upward, insert
the tab on the end of the pedestal into the middle
slot on the bottom of the base, then push the
pedestal down until the two tabs on the left and
right corners of the pedestal snap (lock) into the
two lower slots on the bottom of the base.
• Slip the mounting holes over the wall plate posts
and firmly slide the unit down into place (wall plate
not included).

all) areas, the sum of the RENs of all devices connected to one line should not exceed 5. To be
certain of the number of devices you may connect to your line as determined by the REN, you
should contact your local telephone company.
A plug and jack used to connect this equipment to the premises wiring and telephone network
must comply with the applicable FCC Part 68 rules and requirements adopted by the ACTA. A
compliant telephone cord and modular plug is provided with this product. It is designed to be
connected to a compatible modular jack that is also compliant. See installation instructions for
details.

telephone equipment if you are on a party line. Check with your local telephone company.
• Notice must be given to the telephone company upon permanent disconnection of your
telephone from your line.
• If your home has specially wired alarm equipment connected to the telephone line, ensure the

2 Rights of the Telephone Company
Should your equipment cause trouble on your line which may harm the telephone network,
the telephone company shall, where practicable, notify you that temporary discontinuance of
service may be required. Where prior notice is not practicable and the circumstances warrant
such action, the telephone company may temporarily discontinue service immediately. In case
of such temporary discontinuance, the telephone company must: (1) promptly notify you of
such temporary discontinuance; (2) afford you the opportunity to correct the situation; and (3)
inform you of your right to bring a complaint to the Commission pursuant to procedures set
forth in Subpart E of Part 68, FCC Rules and Regulations.
