Handset and Base Layout
Installing the Phone
Connecting the Telephone Line
Choose the best location to install your telephone. Your telephone
should be placed on a level surface, such as a desk or table top.
1. Plug one end of the straight
telephone line cord into the
PhONE lINE jack on the base.
2. Plug the other end into a wall
jack.
3. Plug one end of the coiled
handset cord into the jack on
the handset.
4. Plug the other end into the hANDSET jack on the back of the base.
5. Place the handset on the base cradle.
6. Set the RINGER and DISPlAY bRIGhTNESS switches on the back of
the base to the desired settings.
7. Set the VOl switch on the side of the handset to the
desired setting.
Connecting the Electrical Power
1. Plug one end of the power supply cord into the back of the base.

“No Worry” Battery Backup
This telephone is equipped with a memory holding system
powered by a customer-installed 9-volt alkaline battery
(not included).
When electrical power is interrupted, or the electrical line is
unplugged, the battery operates the clock to retain the time of day
and alarm settings in memory. When the unit is running on battery
power, the digital display does not light up; however, if wake time
occurs during the power interruption, the alarm buzzer sounds
(regardless of the type of alarm tone selected) if remaining battery
power is adequate. Normal operation resumes after electrical power
is restored.
Install the backup battery as follows:
1. Remove the battery compartment cover
located on the bottom of the base.
2. Connect a fresh 9-volt alkaline battery
(not included). Interlock the large and
small contacts on the battery clip and the
battery. Once connected, place the battery
inside the battery compartment.
3. Replace the battery compartment cover.
NOTE: Alkaline (NEDA 1604A) batteries are
recommended. Carbon-zinc (NEDA 1604) batteries
may be used but memory holding time will be
substantially reduced. Memory holding time for a
fresh alkaline battery is approximately 3 months (if
Wake System is not activated), which should take
care of short, nuisance-type AC power failures.
To preserve battery life, the phone should remain
plugged into an AC electrical outlet. As the battery
gets older, its voltage drops and memory may be
lost. Be sure to replace the battery periodically. A
backup battery is not included with this telephone.
NOTE: If battery is not installed:
a) All memory will be lost if the unit is unplugged for
more than 60 seconds.
b) The clock will stop running during a power outage
period but will start running when power resumes.
The clock will blink to indicate that the time may not
be correct.
IMPORTANT: If storing this unit for more than 30
days, remove the battery.
