Wall Mounting Instructions
The following steps enable installation on a new or existing telephone wall-
mounting plate or directly onto a wall. (Your Cobra INTENNA is designed to
be used with any AT&T, GTE, local phone company or other wall-mounting
plates that can be purchased from most local electronics stores.)
•
Plug modular phone connector into telephone wall jack.
•
Align mounting studs on the plate to the holes on the bottom of the INTEN-
NA base; push base onto studs and slide down on the wall plate.
•
Wrap doubled cord around bottom of base. Cord can be hidden between
bottom of base and wall-mounting plate.
•
Attach the power adapter to the POWER connection (on the base of the
phone) and plug into a household AC power outlet.
•
To install directly on any wall, you’ll need to provide two screws and wall
anchors; follow these steps:
— Drill two holes 3 1/4” apart and insert the wall anchors.
— Drive the screws into the anchors until the head of each screw is
protruding about 1/8” from the wall.
— Align the holes in the cordless base over the screw heads; push base
in and slide down on screws (see diagram #3).
— Plug modular phone connector into telephone wall jack; attach the
power adapter to the POWER connection (on the base of the phone)
and plug into to a household AC power outlet.

Quick Set-Up Guide
The following basic steps enable quick and easy installation of your new Cobra
INTENNA cordless phone for use on a desk or countertop. You are encouraged
to review this complete instruction manual to become familiar with all of the
operating instructions and features of your new phone.
NOTE: Before using, connect your new phone to AC power — see instruction
below — to charge it overnight (at least 12 hours) for optimum conditioning
of the rechargeable batteries inside the cordless handset.
• Insert the round connector of the power adapter into the POWER jack (at
the rear of the cordless phone’s base; see diagram #1 below) and plug the
power adapter into a standard 110V household electrical outlet. Then
place the handset into the base so the CHARGE indicator lights.
STOP: Charge your phone overnight before proceeding with installation.
• After charging, remove the twist-tie from the phone cord and plug the
modular telephone connector into the phone jack on your wall.
• Make sure that the RINGER switch is ON (located at the rear of the base).
• Set the PULSE/TONE switch (also at the rear of the base) for proper opera-
tion (see page 7 for details).
