to lift and remove the

battery compartment door.

2. Insert three AA batteries,

matching the polarity

symbols (+ and -) marked

inside.

3. Snap the battery

compartment door back

into place. When the low

battery icon appears on the

display or the display dims,

replace the batteries.

Battery Notes:

Dispose of old batteries promptly and properly.
Do not burn or bury batteries.
Use only fresh batteries of the required size and

recommended type.

Do not mix old and new batteries, different types

of batteries (standard, alkaline, or rechargeable), or
rechargeable batteries of different capacities.

If you do not plan to use the phone for two weeks

or longer, remove the batteries. Batteries can leak
chemicals that can destroy electronic parts.

You must install the batteries before connecting the

telephone to the wall jack. If no batteries are installed,
the telephone and Caller ID still working with no display.

If you do not replace the batteries within two minutes,

your Caller ID and telephone menory information may be
