Getting started
Optional spare battery
You can purchase a 9V alkaline battery and keep it in the spare battery

failure and with the optional spare battery installed in the telephone, all the
telephone functions will work normally until the battery needs to be replaced.
Remove the mounting bracket from the underside of the telephone base.
Press the tabs in the direction of the arrows and pull the mounting bracket
away from the telephone base.
Press the tab and pull to remove the battery compartment cover. Insert
one new 9V alkaline battery (purchased separately) following the polarity
markings in the battery compartment.
Replace the battery compartment cover.
Pull the mounting bracket up to the upside of the telephone base.
