PREPARATION

INSTALLING BATTERIES

You need four AAA batteries (not sup-
plied) to protect the organizer’s memory
during a power failure. For the longest
operation and best performance, we
recommend you use RadioShack alka-
line batteries.

Cautions:

• Always use fresh batteries of the

required size and recommended
type.

• Do not mix old and new batteries,

different types of batteries (stan-
dard, alkaline, or rechargeable), or
rechargeable batteries of different
capacities.

• Always remove old or weak batter-

ies. Batteries can leak chemicals
that can damage your system.

• If you are replacing the batteries,

make sure the supplied AC adapter
is securely connected to an AC out-
let and to your organizer. Otherwise,
you might lose stored information.

Warning: Dispose of dead batteries
promptly and properly. Do not bury or
burn them.

Follow these steps to install the batter-
ies.

1. If you are replacing the batteries,

unplug both modular telephone line
cords from the back of the system.

2. Use a Phillips screwdriver to remove

the screw in the battery compart-
ment cover.

3. Use a curved object such as a paper

clip to pry off the battery compart-
ment cover.

4. Insert the batteries in the compart-

ment as indicated by the polarity
symbols (+ and –) marked inside.

5. Close the cover and secure it with

the screw. If you are replacing the
batteries, reconnect the phone line
and the phone.

When

appears, replace the bat-

teries.

CONNECTING THE AC
ADAPTER

You must connect the supplied AC
adapter to the organizer to power it.
Plug the AC adapter’s barrel plug into
the

9V DC

jack on the back of the orga-

nizer, then plug the AC adapter into a
standard AC outlet.
