Getting started

Add and register a headset

Each newly purchased headset (IS6100) must be registered to a VTech DECT 6.0 cordless telephone system before use. Visit www.vtechphones.com for a list of compatible telephones.

The telephone base recognizes and counts a headset the same as a handset. You can place the headset charger anywhere you have an available power outlet.

Refer to your telephone user’s manual for a maximum number of headsets that you can register to the telephone base. If you already have the maximum number of handsets/headsets registered, you need to follow the deregistration information in your telephone user’s manual before adding a new headset.

To register a headset:

1.Place the non-registered headset in the headset charger and allow it to charge for at least 15 minutes before beginning registration. Remove the headset from the headset charger. The light on the headset flashes slowly and alternately in red and blue.

2.On the telephone base of the cordless telephone, press and hold

/FIND HANDSET for about four seconds until the red IN USE light turns on. Then release the button.

3.Immediately place the headset in the headset charger. It takes about 60 seconds to complete the registration process. The red IN USE light on the telephone base turns off. The light on the headset turns red when it is registered but not fully charged, or turns blue if it is registered and fully charged.

If the registration process is successful, you hear a dial tone when you press on the headset. If the registration fails, you hear “Not registered” when you press on the headset. The light on the headset flashes slowly and alternately in red and blue. To reset the headset, remove it from the headset charger and then place it back into its charger. Try the registration process again.

• You cannot register a headset if any other system handset or headset is in use. You can only register one headset to the telephone base at a time.

• The headset must be deregistered before registering it to another telephone system.
