Add and register a handset
This telephone system accommodates up to five handsets. You can add new
handsets ( DS6701, purchased separately) to your telephone system. Each handset
must be registered with the telephone base before use. Additional handsets
registered to the telephone base are assigned numbers in the sequential order.
When first purchased and properly charged, each expansion handset shows
To register HS... and ...see manual alternately. Charge the handset before
registering it to the telephone base.
To register a handset:
Place the new/non-registered handset in the telephone base.
Both the telephone base and the handset show Registering... Then both
devices show Registered and you hear a beep when the registration process
completes. The registration process takes about 60 seconds to complete.
Deregister handsets
If you want to replace a handset or reassign the designated handset number of a
registered handset, you must deregister all handsets and then individually register
each handset.
Remove any handset put in the telephone base before deregistration.
To deregister all handsets:
Press and hold FIND HANDSET on the telephone base for about 0 seconds
until the telephone base shows Registering... then De-register?
Immediately press and release MENU/SELECT or FIND HANDSET. The
telephone base displays Please wait.
All handsets show To register HS... and ...see manual alternately when the
deregistration process completes. The deregistration process takes about
0 seconds to complete.
