If the handset battery pack is completely discharged or the battery pack is removed, the digital security code will be lost. If this happens, a new security code is set automatically next time the battery pack is charged.

Changing the Digital Security Code

The digital security code is an identification code used to connect the handset and the base unit. Normally, setting the code is not necessary.

The first time you charge your handset, the security code is automatically set. (See "About the digital security code", page 6.)

In the rare situation that you suspect another cordless telephone is using the same security code, you can change the code.

1)Remove the handset from the base unit. Press and hold find handset on the base.

2)The handset begins emitting a paging sound. While holding find handset, place the handset in the base unit. The paging sound stops.

Leave the handset in the base for more than 3 seconds. A new random security code is set.
