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 unauthorized calls on your phone, a Digital Code feature was added to the DX834 phone. This Digital Code is shared only between the Handset and Base Unit. The Code is set automatically when you first use the phone.

2.Press the PAGE/FIND button on the Base Unit. The Handset begins beeping.
3.When the
beeping stops, remove the Handset for 5 seconds, and then return it to the Base Unit.
Note: The Status LED will blink to indicate that the Digital Security Code is set to one of the more than 65,000 codes.
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 reestablish 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 Status LED will blink to indicate that the Digital Security Code is set.
