INSTALLING YOUR PHONE
Connect the Corded Handset
Use the coiled cord to connect the corded handset to the connector on the left
side of the base.
1. Connect the base AC adaptor to the power jack and the telephone cord to the
TEL LINE jack.
2. Connect the AC Adaptor to the DC 9V/300 mA jack on the base. Plug the
other end to a standard 240 V AC outlet. For safety reasons, please only use
the adaptor which is supplied with the telephone.
#If there is a power failure, you can still make and receive phone calls using
the base corded handset. All other features of the base will not function.
Test the Connection
Pick up the corded handset from the base. You should hear a dial tone and the
display on the base should show 00-00. When you get a dial tone, make a quick
test call.
Test the Emergency Remote Dialler
Press and hold the red SOS button on the Emergency Remote Dialler for
3 seconds. The base will beep for 15 seconds. To cancel the call, press by
pressing and holding the button on the Remote Dialler for 3 seconds.
#When you install the SSE 33 corded phone, ensure that the base is within
the range of the Emergency Remote Dialler. The Emergency Remote Dialler
has a range of 40 meters, however, this is reduced by structural obstacles.
Connect the Power and Telephone Cords

Installing Batteries (OPTIONAL) in the base
1. Lift and remove the battery compartment cover.
2. Insert four AAA batteries (not supplied) into the compartment as indicated by
the polarity symbols.
3. Snap the battery compartment cover back into place.
#You can install 4 AAA Alkaline batteries in the base. The battery back up
system will then be able to power the unit for up to 12 hours if there is a
power failure. If the main power has been turned off for an extended period
or the power supply to the phone has been unplugged from main power
you should replace the batteries with 4 new high quality AAA Alkaline
batteries. Before opening the battery compartment, make sure the base is
disconnected from the telephone line and the mains power supply.
