Installation Options 
Your telephone base is now ready for table top use. If you want to mount 
your telephone on a wall, use the provided wall bracket to connect with a 
standard dual-stud telephone wall mounting plate. If you do not have this 
mounting plate, you can purchase one from your local RadioShack store or 
www.RadioShack.com. You may need professional assistance to install the 
mounting plate.
