Select a location for the system that is near a
modular telephone line jack, a telephone,
and an AC outlet, and is not in the way of
normal activities.

CONNECTING THE SYSTEM

Your telephone connects directly to a modu-
lar telephone line jack. If your telephone wir-
ing does not have a modular jack, you can
update the wiring yourself using jacks and
adapters (available at your local RadioShack
store), or have the telephone company up-
date the wiring for you. You must use com-
patible modular jacks that are compliant with
Part 68 of FCC Rules.

Note: The USOC number of the jack to be in-
stalled is RJ11C.

Follow these steps to connect your system to
the telephone line and phone.

1. Unplug the telephone’s modular cord

from the modular phone line jack and
plug it into the

PHONE

jack on the back

of the system.

2. Plug one end of the supplied modular

cord into the

LINE

jack on the back of the

system and plug the cord’s other end
into a modular phone line jack.

Cautions:

You must use a Class 2 power
source that supplies 9V DC
and delivers at least 500 mA.

Its center tip must be set to positive and
its plug must fit the system's

DC 9V 500

jack. The supplied adapter meets

these specifications. Using an adapter
that does not meet these specifications
could damage the system or the
adapter.

• Always connect the AC adapter to the

system before you connect it to AC
power. When you finish, disconnect the
adapter from AC power before you dis-
connect it from the system.

3. Insert the supplied AC adapter’s barrel

plug into the

DC 9V 500 mA

jack on the

back of the system. Plug the other end
of the adapter into a standard AC outlet.

Note: This system cannot operate without
AC power.

INSTALLING A BACKUP
BATTERY

If the AC power fails or you unplug the sys-
tem, you need one 9V alkaline backup bat-
tery (not supplied) to save the answering
system’s messages and settings for the day
and time. For the best performance and long-
est life, we recommend you use a Ra-
dioShack alkaline battery.

Caution: Use only fresh batteries of the re-
quired size and recommended type.

1. Use a flat-blade screwdriver to lift up and

remove the battery compartment’s
cover.

2. Attach a 9V alkaline battery to the termi-

nals and place the battery in the com-
partment.

3. Snap the battery compartment cover into

place.

Replace the battery when

appears.

Warning: Dispose of the old battery promptly
and properly. Do not burn or bury it.

Cautions:

• Before you replace the battery, be sure

the system is properly connected to AC
power. Otherwise, you might lose any
stored information.

• Disconnect the telephone line cord

before replacing the battery to reduce
the risk of fire or injury. Use only a 9V
alkaline battery.

• If you do not plan to use the system with

batteries for a month, remove the bat-
tery. A battery can leak chemicals that
can destroy electronic parts.
