TAD-1000  (430-0740)            Installation           Faxback Doc. # 15251

READ THIS BEFORE INSTALLATION

We have designed your TAD to conform to federal regulations, and you can
connect it to most telephone lines.  However, each device that you connect
to the phone line draws power from the phone line.  We refer to this power
draw as the device's ringer equivalence number, or REN.  The REN is shown
on the bottom of your TAD.

If you are using more than one device on the line, add up all the RENs.  If
the total is more than five, your phones might not ring and your TAD might
not answer.  In rural areas, a total REN of three might impair ringer
operation.  If ringer operation is impaired, disconnect one of the devices
from the line.

FCC STATEMENT

This TAD complies with Part 68 of FCC Rules.  You must upon request provide
the FCC registration number and the REN to your phone company.  These
numbers are located on the bottom of your TAD.

NOTE:  You must not connect your TAD to any of the following:

       Coin-operated systems

       Party-line systems

       Most electronic key phone systems

This device complies with Part 15 of FCC Rules.  Operation is subject to
the following two conditions:

    This device may not cause harmful interference.

    This device must accept any interference received, including
    interference that may cause undesired operation.

CHOOSING A LOCATION

    Choose a location for the TAD that is:

    Not in the way of normal activities

    Near a telephone jack

    Near an AC outlet

MAKING THE CONNECTIONS

Connecting to the Telephone Line

1.  Insert one end of the supplied modular cord into the modular jack on
    the back of the TAD.

2.  Insert the modular cord's other end into a modular phone line jack.

NOTES:  If you want to connect the TAD and a phone to the same phone line
        line jack, use a duplex jack (available at your local Radio Shack
        store).

        If the phone line jack is not a modular jack, you must update the
        wiring.  You can convert the wiring yourself, using jacks and
        adapters available at your local Radio Shack store.  Or, you can
        let the phone company update the wiring for you.  The phone company
        will charge you for the installation of the necessary jacks.

        The USOC number of the jack to be installed is RJ11C.

Connecting the AC Adapter

Caution: You must use a Class II AC adapter that supplies 9 volts of power,
         delivers at least 400 milliamps, and has a plug that properly fits
         the TAD's DC 9V jack.  The supplied adapter meets these
         specifications.  Using an adapter that does not meet these
         specifications could damage the adapter and the TAD.

1.  Insert the small round plug of the supplied adapter into the DC 9V
    jack on the back of the TAD.

2.  Route the adapter's cord through the strain-relief slot on the back of
    the TAD.  This prevents the cord from being accidentally unplugged from
    the TAD.

3.  Plug the other end of the AC adapter cord into a standard AC outlet.

    The TAD says "Set time, date, and remote code."

NOTE:  Be sure not to press any of the TAD's buttons while you are plugging
       the adapter into the AC outlet.

       If you accidentally press a button and do not hear the proper
       announcement in Step 3, reset the TAD by unplugging the adapter from
       the AC outlet and reinserting it, and then removing and reinserting
       the batteries.

INSTALLING THE BACKUP BATTERIES

If the AC power fails or you unplug the TAD, the backup batteries save the
message groups, message counts, and the settings for the clock, calendar,
and security code.

Use four AA batteries, such as Radio Shack Cat. No. 23-552.

1.  To remove the battery compartment cover on the back of the TAD, pull
    out the bottom of the cover and slide it in the direction of the arrow.

2.  Insert four AA batteries as indicated by the polarity symbols (+ and -)
    marked outside the battery compartment.

3.  Replace the cover.

    Replace the batteries if the BATT LOW indicator flashes when the AC
    adapter is properly connected (see "Connecting the AC Adapter").

    To stop the indicator from flashing, press NEXT/YES.

CAUTIONS:  Always use fresh batteries of the required size and type.

           Do not mix old and new batteries.

           Dispose of batteries properly.  Do not bury or burn them.
