INSTALLING YOUR TELEPHONE
To install your telephone, you must have a modular wall jack at the desired location.
DANGER: To reduce the risk of electrical shock and personal injury, observe the following when
installing station wiring:
1. Never install telephone wiring during a lightning storm.
2. Never install telephone jacks in wet locations unless the jack is specically designed for
wet locations.
3. Never touch uninsulated telephone wires or terminals unless the telephone line has been
disconnected at the network interface.
4. Use caution when installing or modifying telephone lines.
DESK INSTALLATION
To install a desk telephone, use the long modular line cord supplied with your telephone. Plug one end
of the line cord into the connector on the back of your telephone and the opposite end into the modular
wall jack. Your telephone is ready to use.
To disconnect your telephone, press the spring clip on the
line cord plug and pull out.
WALL INSTALLATION
To install a wall telephone, plug the short cord from the back of the telephone into the wall jack.
Align the slotted holes on the back of the telephone with the mounting studs on the wall jack.
Gently pull down on the telephone until it locks in place.
RINGER VOLUME CONTROL
If the control is set to OFF, you will not hear the ringer when someone calls you.
The ringer volume control for the 2500 (desk) telephone is on the bottom of the phone.
The ringer volume control for the 2554 (wall) telephone is a clear lever on the side of the telephone.
Ringer volume can be adjusted while the phone is mounted to the wall.
NUMBER CARD
Write or type telephone number on the number card and t it into the number card slot in the tele-
phone faceplate. Insert one end of the clear plastic retainer in one end of the slot and, holding the re-
tainer as shown below, bend the opposite end down into the slot and let it snap into place. To remove
the retainer, insert a straightened paper clip into the small slot in the retainer and pry outward.
