On a Wall
To mount the phone directly on a wall,
you need two screws (not supplied) with
heads that fit into the keyhole slots on
the bottom of the base. Follow the steps
under “On a Wall Plate” on Page 7, then
apply these additional instructions for
placement on a wall.
1. Drill two holes 3

inches (100 mm) apart.
Then thread a screw
into each hole, letting
the heads extend about
5
/
16
inch (8 mm) from the
wall.
2. Plug one end of the supplied long
modular cord into the
TEL LINE
jack
at the back of the base.
3. Align the bracket's keyhole slots
with the mounting screws and slide
the base downward to secure it.
