Installation You must install and charge the battery before using the telephone. STOP! See pages 5-6 for easy instructions. Install the telephone base close to a telephone jack and a power outlet not controlled by a wall switch. The telephone base can be placed on a flat surface or vertically mounted on the wall. For optimum range and better reception, place the telephone base in a central and open location.
Backup batteries installation and use In the event of a power failure, your telephone can still operate with limited functions if there are backup batteries (purchased separately) installed in the telephone base. If a power failure happens during a call on the corded handset, the call continues (at the lowest volume) until you hang up; while a call on the cordless handset or speakerphone disconnects immediately. During a power failure, you can still make and answer calls using the corded handset.
