Low Battery Indicator
When the Battery
Pack in the Handset
is very low and
needs to be charged,
the TALK/BATT LOW
LED flashes.
If the TALK/BATT LOW LED begins to flash, the
phone is programmed to eliminate its functions to
save power. The table below describes what to do
to return your phone to normal operation.

Automatic Digital Code Security
To avoid unauthorised calls on your phone, a
Digital Code feature was added to the DX834

the Handset and Base Unit. The code is set auto-
matically when you first charge the phone.
To change the Digital Code, be sure the Handset is
on the Base, then:

Handset from
the Base Unit.

PAGE/FIND

Base Unit.

Handset back
on the Base
Unit while it is
still beeping.
4. When the beeping stops, briefly remove the
Handset again, and then return it to the
Base Unit.

Note: If the Base Unit loses power while the

Handset is off the Base, the Digital Code may

be erased. When this happens, the Handset will

not function.

To re-establish communication between the
Handset and Base Unit:
1. Restore power to the Base Unit.
2. Place the Handset back on the Base Unit.
3. The CHARGE LED will blink to indicate that the
Digital Security Code is set.
