INSTALLATION

MODULAR WALL JACK

To install the telephone directly on a modular wall jack :

1. Connect the 15 inch line cord to the LINE CORD jack on rear of telephone body.

2. Tuck the line cord into the channel on the back of the phone.

3. Peel and stick the rubber pads on the back side of the phone in the  4 corners.

4. Hold the telephone body up next to the modular jack and plug the line cord into this

jack.

5. Tuck the excess line cord into the recess provided on the back of the phone.

6. Line up the mounting holes of the telephone body with the mounting studs (screw

heads) on the modular jack or wall.

7. Push the telephone body against the wall jack and gently pull down.

WALL

If you are not mounting directly onto a modular wall jack, proceed as follows :

1. Install the 7 foot line cord into the LINE CORD jack on the back of the telephone. If

the desired location is farther than 7 foot from a wall jack, you will have to obtain a

longer line cord available at most hardware stores.

2. Place the provided TEMPLATE against the wall in the position desired.

3. Mark the wall by poking either a pen or pencil through the indicated spots on the

template.

4. If there is no stud at this location, it will be necessary to install the provided wall

anchors. Drill a small pilot hole at the marked locations. Tap the anchors into the

holes. Then insert screws, but DO NOT TIGHTEN. Leave the screw heads protruding

about ¼ inch.

5. If there is a stud at this location, simply install the two screws into the stud. REMEMBER,

leave screw head protruding.

6. Telephone is then mounted according to procedure detailed in MOUNTING TO

MODULAR PLUG.

NOTE

 : If you encounter difficulty fitting the telephone body onto the screws, or the

telephone wobbles when installed, either tighten or loosen the screws to adjust.

TABLE

2. Plug free end of line cord into nearest modular telephone jack.

MAKING AND ANSWERING CALLS

To get a dial tone or answer an incoming call, lift the handset.

To hang up, either replace the handset or simply press down the HANDSET CRADLE.

REDIAL

The last number dialed is automatically stored in the phone. To redial the last number,

lift the handset and press the REDIAL (coin release) button.

COINBOX

Coins can be deposited into the COIN SLOTS located on the top of the telephone body.

The coins will ring a bell and drop into the coin box. The coinbox may be opened by

inserting the key and rotating.

TROUBLESHOOTING

If you experience problems with your telephone, try the following suggestions:

NO DIAL TONE

1. Make sure that all plugs are connected properly. Check the connections at the wall

jack, the telephone body and the handset.

2. Try another modular jack within your home which you know to be working properly.

CALLS CANNOT BE DIALED OR DIALED SLOWLY

Check to make sure that the DIAL MODE switch is in the correct position for the type

of service available in your area.

TELEPHONE DOES NOT RING

Check that RINGER CONTROL switch is not set to OFF.

If there are several telephones connected to the same line, try disconnecting some of

the other telephones. Having too many telephones connected to the same line can cause

low ringer volume or poor sound quality during calls.

CARE AND MAINTENANCE

Avoid rough treatment to your telephone. Do not drop the handset and always replace

it gently onto the cradle.

Clean only with a cloth slightly dampened with water only. Do not use detergents, waxes,

solvents, sprays, alcohols or excessive water.
