Expand your telephone system

The handsets provided with your telephone system are already registered. Each handset is assigned a number that displays on the handset. Additional handsets registered to the telephone system are assigned in sequential order. For instance, if the telephone system already has HANDSET 1 and HANDSET 2, the new registered handset is assigned HANDSET 3. After registration, you may rename the handsets (see Rename handset on page 16). This telephone system accommodates up to 12 handsets.

Add and register a handset

You can add new handsets (LS6405, purchased separately) to your telephone system. Each handset must be registered with the telephone base before use. When first purchased, each handset displays Put HS on BASE to register. You may need to charge the handset before registering it to the telephone base. For more details on battery charging, see page 4.

To register a handset:

1. Make sure the handset is out of the telephone base or handset charger and shows

Put HS on BASE to register. Place the handset you wish to register in the telephone base.

2. The handset displays Registering...Please wait and the red IN USE light on the telephone base turns on. It takes about 90 seconds to complete the registration process.

The handset displays HANDSET X Registered (X represents the registered handset number).

The IN USE light turns off and the handset beeps when registration completes.

If registration fails, the system will automatically try to register again. If registration fails after the third try, the handset displays Registration failed then Put HS on BASE to register. This may take up to five minutes to occur.

To reset the handset, remove it from the telephone base. When the handset displays Put HS on BASE to register, try the registration process again.

After registration, the date and time need to be reset.

For instructions, see Set date and time on page 13.
