Adding Accessory Handsets

Four Multi-Handset Expandability

Your phone supports up to four handsets. You can now place a fully-featured cordless handset anywhere AC power is available to connect the handset charger.

Up to two handsets can be used for outside and/or intercom call.

For example,four-way conferencing (one base, two handsets, and one outside line) while on an intercom call using the other two handsets.

Registering Accessory Handsets

If you purchase an accessory handset, you need to register the handset before use. Only one handset can be registered at a time. Handsets supplied with the phone are registered to the base by the factory. When charged, pre-registered handsets display a handset ID number. Handsets that have not been registered display MODELS VARY! CHARGE HANDSET ON THE BASE FOR REGISTRATION OR REFER TO OWNER’S MANUAL.

When you register an accessory handset to the base, the handset ID number will be assigned.

1.Before registering the accesory handset, the battery pack MUST be charged for 15-20 hours.

2.Place the accesory handset in the main base unit to begin registration.
