Resetting the Handset

You may need to reset your handset in the following instances:

You lose a handset and purchase a new one.

When you try and register to your existing base, you see REGISTRATION FAILED on the menu display.

You are unable to register any handsets to the base.

You had a base which needed to be exchanged by the manufacturer.

When you register your existing handsets to the base, and the handset IDs do not match. (For example, the handset registers as Handset #4, but you only have two handsets.)

When you are instructed to by the one of the manufacturer’s call center representatives.

To reset the handset, do the following:

1. Press and hold [ ] and [#/ ] for at least 5 seconds until the SYSTEM RESET menu appears. . Select DEREGISTER HS submenu. WHICH HANDSET? appears.

.Move the cursor to select the handset ID to be deregistered from the list, and then press . DEREGISTER HS appears.

3.The phone will ask you to confirm the deregistration. Move the cursor to YES, and then press . You will hear a confirmation tone. the handset will delete its own base information without trying to contact the base. When the base information is deleted, the handset displays MODELS VARY! CHARGE HANDSET ON THE BASE FOR REGISTRATION OR REFER TO OWNER’S MANUAL.

If the handset cannot contact the base, it displays UNAVAILABLE. Make sure the handset is in range of the base and the base is connected to power.
