INSTALLING YOUR PHONE
INSTALLING YOUR PHONE
CHOOSE A LOCATION FOR THE BASE UNIT
The base should be away from all other electronic equipment such as a
personal computer, microwave, stereo, or television. It is also a good
idea to place the unit away from noisy areas, or from heat sources such
as a radiator or direct sunlight.
PLUG IN THE ADAPTER
a). Plug the adapter tip into the round
jack on the base and the other end
into an electrical outlet. Without AC
power your phone cannot operate.
b.) Thread the cord through the clip on
the housing to prevent the cord
from pulling loose.
INSTALL THE LINE CORD
You can set your telephone on a tabletop or you can mount the phone on
a wall.
To mount on a wall:
a). Remove the
mounting wedge
from the bottom
of the base by
placing your
thumb at the top
of the arrow on
the mounting
wedge and
pressing down in the direction of the arrow.
b.) Turn the wedge around and place it over the lower portion
of the base. Reinstall the wedge by placing your thumb over
the arrow and by pressing downwards and backwards until
it snaps into place.
c.) Plug the five inch line cord into the phone jack marked TEL
LINE.
d.) Plug the other end of the line cord into the wall jack.
e.) Use the gap on the underside of the base to gather any
excess cord.
f.) Hang the base over the installation hooks.
SuperManual.book Page 7 Thursday, August 19, 1999 12:50 PM
INSTALL BATTERY
Use this procedure to install or replace the
battery. Be sure to follow the battery
specifications and safety instructions outlined
in your safety instruction booklet.
CAUTION
Use only Cidco brand nickel cadmium (NiCad) batteries in this phone (Part No.
102794-01).
a). Press down on the battery cover and
slide the cover down to expose the
battery compartment.
b.) Locate the battery terminals inside of
the battery compartment and the
corresponding terminals on the battery
pack. Align the battery pack terminals
with the terminals in the battery well.
NOTE
Prior to first use, place the handset in the cradle and charge
the battery for at least 12 hrs with the Off-On Switch in the
OFF position. The charge light on the base comes on to tell you
that the handset is charging.
