Adding new handsets

Your telephone can accommodate up to four cordless handsets. You can add new handsets (E560-1, sold separately) to the E5600/E5603B at any time, but each handset must be registered with the base before use.

The handset provided with your E5600 is automatically registered as Handset 1.

Additional handsets will be assigned numbers in the order they are registered (Handset 2, Handset 3, or Handset 4). You can register a maximum of 4 handsets.

The E5603B has 3 handsets automatically registered as Handset 1, 2 and 3. You can register one additional handset , which will be assigned number 4.

Enter base ID, then press SELECT.

Before using a new E560-1 handset, you must register it with the base. During registration, you must enter the 15-digit ID number of the telephone base. The Base ID is located on the bottom of the base unit.

To add a new handset:

•Make sure your handset batteries are properly installed and charged.

•Your handset will display “SEARCHING...”

•Press and hold the SELECT key until the handset displays “ENTER BASE ID”.

•Enter the 15-digit Base ID number from the bottom of the base unit.

•Press SELECT to accept the code and complete registration.

NOTE: If an invalid Base ID code is entered you will hear an error tone and the handset will continue to display “ENTER BASE ID”. To make corrections while entering the code, you can erase digits by pressing the DELETE key.

Once a valid base ID code is entered and accepted by the base unit, the new handset will be assigned the next available handset number (HS2, HS3, or HS4). You can register a maximum of four handsets per base unit.
