This cordless telephone must be set up before use. Follow these steps:
AAbboouutttthheeddiiggiittaallsseeccuurriittyyccooddee
This cordless telephone uses a
digital security code to prevent
unauthorized access to your
base unit. This security code
prevents other cordless
handsets from making calls
through your base unit.
A random security code will be
assigned automatically between
your base unit and handset
when you charge the battery
pack for the first time.
If you want to change the
security code, see page 46.
SStteepp11((ppaaggee77))
Unpack the telephone and accessories.
SStteepp22((ppaaggee88))
Next, choose the best location
to set up the base unit.
SStteepp33((ppaaggee99ttoo1144))
Then, insert the battery pack into
the handset. Connect the base unit.

Before choosing a location for your new phone, read the INSTALLATION CONSIDERATIONS
included in the PRECAUTIONS AND IMPORTANT SAFET Y INSTRUCTIONS. Here are some
important guidelines you should consider:
•The location should be close to both a phone jack and a continuous power outlet
which is not switchable.
•Keep the base and handset away from sources of electrical noise such as motors,
microwave ovens, and fluorescent lighting.
•Be sure there is sufficient space to raise the base antenna to a vertical position.
•The base can be placed on a desk, tabletop, or mounted on a standard wall plate.
•If your second phone line has a separate modular jack, place your phone so you can
access both jacks.
