Resetting the Handset Without the Base | Uniden DSS8955+2 specification

Resetting the Handset Without the Base

If your original base is not available for some reason, you can still reset the handset and use it with another base.

1)Press and hold [ ] and [#] for at least five seconds.

2)Move the cursor to select BASE UNAVAILABLE and then press [menu/select]. BASE UNAVAILABLE appears.

3)Move the cursor to select YES, and then press [menu/select]. You hear a confirmation tone, and the handset deletes its own base information without contacting the base. The handset displays HANDSET NOT REGISTERED-PLACE HANDSET ON BASE TO REGISTER. SEE YOUR OWNER'S MANUAL FOR HELP.

4)Register the handset to the new base (see Registering accessory handsets on page 12).
