• Connect the AC adapter to a continuous power supply.
• Place the main base unit close to the AC outlet so that you can unplug the AC adapter easily.

C. Connect the main base unit and the extra charging cradle

1) Connect the AC adapter to the DC IN 9V jack

and to a standard 120V AC wall outlet. 

Use

only the supplied AD-420 AC adapter. Do
not use any other AC adapter.

2) Set the main base and extra charging cradle

on a desk or tabletop, and place one handset
on the main base unit and one in the extra
charging cradle.

3) Raise the antenna to a vertical position.

4) Make sure that the 

status

LED illuminates. If the LED does

not illuminate, check to see that the AC adapter is plugged in
and that the handset makes good contact with the main base
charging contacts.

The handset can be
placed face up or 
face down on the main
base for charging.

Place the power cord so
that it does not create a
trip hazard or where it
could become chafed
and create a fire or
electrical hazard.

After installing the battery packs in the handsets, charge your handsets at least 

15-20 hours before plugging into the phone line

. Once the handsets battery packs

are fully charged, connect the telephone line cord to the main base and telephone
wall outlet.

5) Connect the telephone line cord to the 

TEL LINE

jack and 

to a telephone outlet once the handset is fully charged.

Modular

If your telephone outlet isn't modular,
contact your telephone company 
for assistance.
