Telephone installation
Your telephone base comes in wall mount position. You
can mount your telephone on a wall or place it on a table.
If you subscribe to digital subscriber line (DSL)
high-speed Internet service through your telephone line,
you must install a DSL lter between the telephone line
cord and telephone wall jack. The lter prevents noise
and caller ID problems caused by DSL interference.
Contact your DSL service provider for more information
about DSL lters.
To convert from wall mount to
tabletop position:
Slide the telephone base up and
remove it from the wall plate. Unplug
the telephone line cord (or the DSL
lter) from the wall.

Place the telephone
base on the table and
reverse the handset
tab as shown.
2.
Plug the telephone line cord into a telephone
wall jack and put the handset on the
telephone base.

To mount the telephone on the wall:
Route the excess telephone line cord through the
channel on the bottom of the telephone base, and
then plug the other end of the telephone line cord
(or the DSL lter) into a telephone wall jack.
