Installing the Battery

In the event of a power loss, a 9-volt battery (not included)
enables the answerer to retain greetings and messages stored in
memory. To install the battery:

1. Remove the battery compartment door on the bottom of the

unit by loosening the screw with a Phillips screwdriver. Lift the

door.

2. Connect a fresh 9-volt alkaline battery (not included). The

large and small contacts on the battery clip and the battery

will interlock. Once connected, place the battery inside the

battery compartment.

3. Replace the battery compartment door and tighten the screw.

NOTE: If the battery is low or not installed, the unit

announces “Low Battery” at the end of message

playback.

CAUTION:

• Never install telephone wiring during a lightning storm.

• Never touch uninsulated telephone wires or terminals, unless the

telephone line has been disconnected at the network interface.

• Use caution when installing or modifying telephone lines.
