Equipment Information How to connect or disconnect your phones: To install your phone, match the plug at the end of the cord with the jack, and insert. To disconnect your phone, squeeze the clip on the plug and pull it out of the jack. A special converter can be pro vided to permanently change the non-standard jacks into modular out lets to use with your modular cord. Plug the converter into the jacks, then plug the cord into the converter. To connect your wall phone, match the holes in the back of the phone with the rivets and the wall mount ing. Push the phone lightly against the mounting and slide it down into place. To disconnect, slide the phone up to lift it off the rivets, then pull it away from the wall. If your house or apartment has “hard-wired” telephone outlets, you may be able to save time and money on installation by changing them to mod ular “plug-in” outlets yourself with a modular jack converter. Modular outlets let you plug in or move your own tele phones. For more information, call your Telephone Company Business Office.
