3. Plug a third telephone line cord into the answering machine’s

phone jack and the phone’s modular jack.

4. Set your answering machine to answer after two or more rings.

This gives the system time to record the call information that the
phone company sends between the first and second rings.

MOUNTING THE SYSTEM

You can set the system flat on a desk, shelf, or table or use the sup-
plied mounting bracket to set the system at an angle. You can also
use the bracket to mount the system to a wall.

Attaching the Mounting Bracket

1. Align the keyhole slots on the bottom of the system with the

hooks on the mounting bracket.

2. Gently push the bracket up into the system to secure it.

To remove the bracket from the system, press up from the bottom of
the system until the bracket snaps off.

Mounting on Wall 

To mount the system on the wall, you need two screws (not sup-
plied) with heads larger than the keyhole slots on the back of the
mounting bracket.

1. Drill two holes 1

 inches (37 mm) apart

at the mounting location. Thread a screw
into each hole, letting the heads extend
about 

1

/

 inch (3mm) from the mounting

surface.

2. Attach the mounting bracket to the system

(see “Attaching the Mounting Bracket”).

3. Connect the system as described in “Connecting the System”.

4. Align the keyhole slots on the mounting bracket with the screws

and slide the system down until it is secure.

RECEIVING AND STORING CALLS

Caller ID is a service provided by your telephone company. When
you subscribe to this service, the telephone company sends the call-
er’s telephone number (and name, if available) and the call’s date
and time between the first and second rings. The system receives
and displays this information for each call and updates the display
with the current date and time. Your system saves up to 79 call
records, then replaces the oldest call record with each new one. Re-
peat calls are stored separately, instead of all on the same record.

During an incoming call, the red new call indicator flashes quickly
while the phone is ringing, then the number of new and total calls ap-
pear. The indicator flashes slowly until all calls are reviewed. 

REVIEWING CALL RECORDS

Each time you receive a call, the system saves a call record in mem-
ory that you can see while you are on the phone, or review later.
Each call record includes the time and date of the call, the call num-
ber (order in which the call is received), the caller’s telephone num-
ber, and the caller’s name (if available).

To scroll through the call records, repeatedly press (or hold down)
