The handsets provided with your telephone system are already registered.
Additional handsets registered to the telephone system are assigned
in sequential order. For instance, if you already have HANDSeT 1 and
HANDSeT 2, the new registered handset is assigned HANDSeT 3. This
telephone system accommodates up to 12 handsets.
Add and register a handset
You can add new handsets ( DS6401, purchased separately) to your
telephone system, but each handset must be registered with the telephone
base before use. When first purchased, each expansion handset shows
Put handset on BASe to register after a battery is installed. You may
need to charge the handset before registering it to the telephone base. For
more details on battery charging, see the table on page 5.
To register a handset:

the registration process. The handset displays
