There is a unique digital security code programmed in each unit. When the base and the handset are powered up the first time, the handset automatically links with the base ready for normal and secure use. If you have purchased additional accessory handset(s), you will need to follow the registration procedure in “Handset Registration” in this manual to maintain intact the digital security.
