Setup Help

Set up your phone in 4 steps

Most people are up and running in about 15 minutes.

Plug in the base

Connect the power adapter to the base and plug it into a wall outlet. For cordless models, put the handset on its charger.
Connect the phone line

Plug one end of the line cord into the base and the other into your wall phone jack, or the phone port on your modem.
Charge the handset

Let cordless handsets charge fully, about 15 hours, before first use. The batteries come already in the box.
Add your favorite people

Slide photos under the photo-button covers and save each person's number. Then turn on call blocking if you'd like.

Will it work in my home?

Almost certainly. If there's a phone jack in the wall, it works. Here are the most common setups:

Traditional landline

Plug the line cord into the phone jack in the wall.

Cable or internet phone

Service from Xfinity, Spectrum, Verizon Fios and others. Plug into the phone port on the modem.

No landline at all

Pair it with a cell-to-home-phone adapter and keep using the cell number.
