Direct Wall Plate Mounting
If you don’t have a standard wall plate, you can mount your phone directly to the wall. Before doing this, consider the following:
•Avoid electrical cables, pipes, or other items behind the mounting location that could cause a hazard when inserting screws into the wall.
•Try to mount your phone within 10-15 feet of a working phone jack to avoid excessive cord lengths.
•Make sure the wall material is capable of supporting the weight
of the base and handset. TOP
• Use #10 screws (minimum length of 1-3/8 inches) with anchoring devices suitable for the wall material where the base unit will be placed.
1.Insert two mounting screws into the wall, (with their appropriate anchoring device), 3-15/16 inches apart. Allow about 3/16 of an inch between the wall and screwheads for mounting the phone.
