Setting up the base unit
Connecting the AC adaptor and 
telephone line cord
Connect the telephone line cord until it 
clicks into the base unit (A) and telephone 
line jack (B). Connect the AC adaptor cord 
by pressing the plug firmly (C).
LUse only the included Panasonic AC 
adaptor PQLV1 or PQLV256.
Note:
LThe AC adaptor must remain connected 
at all times. (It is normal for the adaptor 
to feel warm during use.)
LThe AC adaptor should be connected to 
a vertically oriented or floor-mounted AC 
outlet. Do not connect the AC adaptor to 
a ceiling-mounted AC outlet, as the 
weight of the adaptor may cause it to 
become disconnected.
LThe unit will not work during a power 
failure. We recommend connecting a standard telephone to the same 
telephone line or to the same telephone 
jack using a Panasonic T-adaptor (page 
7). Emergency power can be supplied to 
the unit by connecting a Panasonic 
battery back-up power supply noted on 
page 7.
If you subscribe to a DSL service
Please attach a noise filter (contact your 
DSL provider) to the telephone line 
between the base unit and the telephone 
line jack in the event of the following:
– Noise is heard during conversations.
– Caller ID features (page 25) do not 
function properly.

Battery level
Note:
LWhen the battery needs to be charged, 
the handset beeps intermittently while it 
is in use.
Panasonic battery performance
Note:
LBattery operating time may be 
shortened over time depending on 
usage conditions and surrounding 
temperature.
LBattery power is consumed whenever 
the handset is off the base unit or 
charger, even when the handset is not in 
use. Hence the longer you leave the 
handset off the base unit or charger, the 
less time you may actually talk using the 
handset.LAfter the handset is fully charged, 
displaying “Charge completed”, it 
may be left on the base unit (or charger) 
without any ill effect on the battery.
LThe battery level may not be displayed 
correctly after you replace the battery. In 
this case, place the handset on the base 
unit (or charger) and let charge for 7 
hours.
