Direct wall mounting
If you don’t have a standard wall plate, you can mount your phone
directly to the wall. Before mounting your cordless telephone, consider
the following:
Select a location away from electrical cables, pipes, or other items
behind the mounting location. Inserting screws into areas such as this
can be hazardous.
Try to mount your phone within 10 - 15 feet of a working phone jack in
order to avoid excessive cord length. Remember, you are not mounting
your phone to a wall plate with a built-in phone jack.
If the selected mounting area has no wooden support beams directly
behind it, you will need the appropriate anchoring devices in order for
the wall to properly support your phone.
1) Insert two mounting screws into
the wall, with their appropriate
anchoring device if necessary,
3-15/16 inches apart. Allow about
3/16 of an inch between the wall
and screw heads for mounting
the phone.
2) Set the handset retainer. (Refer to “Setting the Handset Retainer for
Wall Mounting” on page 4.)
3) Plug the AC adapter into the base
and place the cord inside the left
molded channel cord holder.
