Your telephone connects directly to a modular telephone
line jack. If your telephone wiring does not have a modular
jack, you can update the wiring yourself using jacks and
adapters (available at your local RadioShack store or online
at RadioShack.com), or have the telephone company
update the wiring for you. You must use compatible modular
jacks that are compliant with Part 68 of FCC Rules. The
USOC number of the jack to be installed is RJ11C (or
RJ11W for a wall plate jack).
To mount the phone directly on a wall, you need two screws
(not supplied) with heads that fit into the keyhole slots on
the back of the base. Drill two holes 3
15
/
16
inches (100 mm)
apart. Then thread a screw into each hole, letting the heads
extend about
1
/
8
inch (3 mm) from the wall.
1. Plug one end of the supplied
modular cord (long for a desktop
or direct wall mounting, short for
a wall plate) into the
TEL
LINE
jack on the bottom of the base.
2. Insert the supplied AC adapter’s
barrel plug into the
DC IN 9V
jack
on the bottom of the base and
route the adapter’s cord through
the strain relief slot on the base.
3. Route the adapter and modular
cords through the molded routing
channels on the back of the base
as shown here.
4. For a wall plate, plug the other
end of the short modular cord
into the wall plate jack.
5. For a wall plate or direct wall mounting, align the base’s
keyhole slots with the wall plate studs or mounting
screws and slide the base down to secure it.
6. For a desktop or direct wall mounting, plug the other
end of the modular cord into a modular phone line jack.
7. Plug the adapter into a standard AC outlet.
8. Lift the antenna to a vertical position.

The phone comes with a rechargeable nickel-cadmium
battery pack in the handset, but not connected. Before using
your phone, you must connect the battery pack, then charge
it for about 15–20 hours.
