PREPARATION
CHOOSING A
LOCATION
Select a location for the TAD that is
near a modular telephone jack and
an AC outlet and away from normal
activities.
Note: Your TAD connects to a mod-
ular phone line jack. If your telephone
wiring does not have a modular jack,
you can update the wiring yourself or
have the telephone company update
it for you.
• Radio Shack stores sell jacks
and adapters to convert older
wiring methods to modular wir-
ing.
• The telephone company
charges to install the necessary
jacks.
• The USOC number of the jack to
be installed is RJ11C.
CONNECTING TO THE
PHONE LINE
To connect the TAD to the phone
line, plug
TEL. LINE
into a modular
phone jack.
If you want to connect the TAD and
your phone to the same phone line,
plug the telephone cord’s modular
plug into
TEL.
on the back of the
TAD.
INSTALLING THE
CASSETTE TAPE
Your TAD is supplied with an MC-30
tape (15 minutes recording time per
side). You can buy additional and dif-
ferent length cassettes at your local
Radio Shack store.
Follow these steps to install the tape.
1. Remove the cassette’s stopper
bracket, then turn its hub clock-
wise with a pencil to take up any
tape slack.
2. Lift the cassette compartment
cover from the recessed area to
the right of the compartment.
