Resetting the Handset without the Base

If your original base is not available for some reason (for example, it is lost or somehow incapacitated), you can still reset the handset and use it with another base.

1. Press and hold [ ] and [#/ ] for at least 5 seconds until the. SYSTEM RESET menu appears.

. Move the cursor to select the REPLACING BASE submenu, and

then press. REPLACE BASE appears.

3.Move the cursor to select YES, and then press . A confirmation tone sounds. The handset de- letes 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 REGISTRATION OR REFER TO OWNER’S MANUAL. To register the handset to the new base, see page 21.

Changing the Digital Security Code

The digital security code is an identification code used to connect the handset and the base unit. Your unit ships from the manufacturer with a preset security code. Resetting this code is not normally necessary. In the rare situation that you suspect another cordless telephone is using the same security code or if you are instructed to change this code by a manufacturer’s Call Center Representative, you can change the code. To change the digital security code:

1.Reset all handsets (see page 22).

.Re-register each handset by following the steps on page 21.

Traveling Out of Range

During a call, as you begin to move your handset too far from your base unit, noise may increase. If you pass the range limits of the base unit, you hear a beep and see OUT OF RANGE on the display, and then the handset returns to standby. You may return to the call if you move your handset within the range limits of the base and press.
