of the base and the other end into a modular wall telephone jack.
Connecting the Corded Handset
1. Connect one end of the coiled handset cord to the jack on the side of the base.
. Connect the other end of the coiled cord to the jack on the handset, then place
the handset in the base cradle.
Setting the Ringer Volume

base.

Wall Mounting the Base
The base is packaged with the pedestal attached in desktop mode. To mount the
base on the wall:
1. Turn the base over and remove the pedestal.
. Rotate the pedestal a half turn, and align it with the bottom of the base.
3. Attach the pedestal by first inserting the tabs on the pedestal into the slots on the
bottom of the base, and then push the pedestal down until it snaps into place.
4. Plug the telephone line cord into the jack marked PHONE LINE on the back of the
base and the other end into a modular phone jack.
5. Feed the telephone line cord and AC power adaptor cord through the grooves on
the pedestal to allow the unit to rest flat against the wall.
6. Slip the mounting holes on the pedestal over the wall plate posts and firmly slide
the unit into place. (Wall plate not included.)
7. Remove the handset hook, turn it upside down, and put it back in the slot. You
need to do this so the corded handset doesn’t fall out of the base.
8. Place the corded handset in the base cradle.
