Installation

Got an older-style telephone wall socket? 

You may need to purchase an adapter first. 

These can be found at most hardware or 

electronics stores.

1.  Plug in the  

power adapter

Ensure the power point 
stays on so that the 
phone’s back-up battery 
remains charged. Your 
fully charged phone 
battery will remain 
operational for up to  
8 hours in the event  
of a power outage.

2.  Connect to a  

telephone socket

Using the grey phone  
cable supplied, connect  
the phone to your  
telephone socket.

3. Check for dial tone

•  Pick up your handset  

and check that you  
have a dial tone.

•  If a dial tone is heard, 

you will be able to make 
and receive calls now.

In the event of a phone  
line or power outage, you 
should still hear a tone.  
Your Telstra Priority Assist 
Phone will automatically 
switch over to the battery 
and/or emergency mobile 
back-up mode to ensure  
you can make calls as usual.
