Installation

Selecting the Installation Location

Select a location for the phone that avoids excessive heat or humidity. The base unit can be placed on a desk or tabletop near a
standard 120V AC outlet and telephone line jack. The base unit can also be mounted on a standard AT&T or GTE wall plate
using the Wall Mount Adaptor. If the phone is to be paired with a keyset, place both phones in the same area. Keep the base unit
and handset away from sources of electrical noise (motors, fluorescent lighting, computers). Each 910i Cordless Telephone unit
should be at least 5 feet away from any other 910i Cordless Telephone to avoid interference.

Connecting the Telephone Line

There are two types of phone outlets:
1) Modular Jack
Plug the telephone line cord from the base unit into a standard modular telephone jack.
2) Hardwired Jack
A modular jack converter (not included) is required. You may need to rewire when connecting the converter (making color-
coded connections).

Connecting the Telephone Cord

CAUTION:
• Never install telephone wiring during a lightning storm.
• Never touch uninsulated telephone wires or terminals unless the telephone line has been disconnected at the KSU.
• Use caution when installing or modifying telephone lines.
