Installing and Replacing the Batteries
CAUTION: Before opening the battery
compartment, be sure that the telephone is not
plugged into a wall jack and that any external
equipment (e.g., fax machine, extension phone,
etc.) is disconnected from the telephone.
Your phone uses 4 AA-size alkaline batteries for receiving
and storing Caller ID records and for storing the numbers
you use for memory dialing, pulse dialing, and redial.
You will have approximately 90 seconds to replace
the batteries before the memories stored are lost.
Please read the instructions before replacing
the batteries and have the batteries ready to be
inserted beforehand.
If the low battery icon appears in the display, you
need to replace the batteries. It is important that
you replace the batteries as soon as possible in
order to maintain Caller ID operation.
If you are not going to use the telephone for more
than 30 days, remove the batteries because they
may leak and damage the unit.

the desk stand. (To remove the desk stand, turn the base

the LINE 1+2 jack. If your phone company uses a
separate phone jack for each line, connect the other
telephone cord to the LINE 2/DATA jack.
