WALL MOUNTING
The CP-1260 can be wall mounted easily by
following these instructions.
1
If you have a standard wall plate, skip
this step. If you don't have a standard
wall plate, mount the phone directly to
the wall. Insert two mounting screws
into the wall (not included), 3-15/16
inches apart. Allow about 3/16 of an
inch between the wall and screwheads
for mounting the phone.
2
Snap the wall mount bracket into the
notches on the base.
Plug the telephone line cord into the
3
TEL LINE jack and the AC Adapter into
the DC IN 9V jack.
Plug the telephone line cord into the
4
telephone outlet.
5
Wrap the AC adapter cord inside the
molded wiring channel. Then wrap the
cord around the strain relief notch
located at the underside of the base.
6
Plug the AC adapter into the electrical
wall outlet.
7
Raise the antenna to a vertical position.
Align the mounting slots on the base
8
with the mounting posts on the wall.
Push in and down until the phone is
firmly mounted.
On the base unit, slide the handset
9
retainer up out of the slot and rotate it
180 degrees.
10
Flip the retainer from front to back.
Slide it back into the slot so that the
lip of the retainer is up and the oval is
down. The retainer holds the handset
in place.
