9.1 Operating additional units
9.1.1 Additional cordless handsets
Up to 6 cordless handsets can be registered to the base
unit. Additional cordless handsets will give you the
freedom to, for example, have an intercom call with
another cordless handset while a third cordless handset
is on an outside call.
Important:
L The additional cordless handset model
recommended for use with this unit is noted on
page 7. If other model cordless handset is used,
certain operations (cordless handset settings,
base unit settings, etc.) may not be available.
9.2 Registering a cordless
handset to a base unit
The included cordless handset and base unit are
preregistered. If for some reason the cordless handset is
not registered to the base unit (for example, w flashes
even when the cordless handset is near the base unit),
register the cordless handset manually.
After purchasing an additional cordless handset, register
it to the base unit. Ensure that the additional cordless
handset is switched ON. If it is not ON, press and hold
