Bluetooth
To use a Bluetooth enabled cell phone with your
DS6511, you must first pair
and connect your Bluetooth cell phone(s) with the telephone base. All
DS6511
handsets can be used to make or answer calls on the cell line.
Bluetooth wireless technology operates within a short range (a maximum of
approximately 30 feet). When you pair a Bluetooth cell phone to the telephone
base, place your Bluetooth cell phone closer to the telephone base to maintain
sufficient signal strength. For optimal performance, keep your cell phone within
5 feet of the telephone base while using the cell line.
Pair and connect your first Bluetooth cell phone
Press and hold
1/ 2 on the telephone base for about four seconds. The
1/ 2 light blinks.
Turn on the Bluetooth feature of your cell phone. Once your cell phone finds
your VTech phone (
VTech DS6511), press the appropriate key on your cell
phone to continue the pairing process.
Your cell phone may prompt you to enter the PIN of the telephone base. The
default PIN of the telephone base is
0000.
If the pairing fails, turn off the Bluetooth feature on your cell phone and on DS65
by pressing
1/ 2. Then repeat the steps above to pair and connect again.
In some cases, it may take you a few attempts to complete the pairing process.
