Digital Security System Your telephone is equipped with a digital security coding system to protect your base unit from being accessed by other cordless telephones. The code allows your base and handset to recognize each other so that other cordless phones will not make calls on your line. If the AC adaptor is disconnected or a loss of power occurs while the handset is away from the base unit, the security code will be lost and the phone will be inoperable. If this occurs, reconnect the AC adaptor and return the handset to the base unit so that the security code is reset. When the handset is not in the base, only a handset having the identical security code and operating on the same channel can access the base and use your phone line. Digital security coding will also eliminate the “false” ringing associated with cordless telephones not equipped with this feature. 16 TELEPHONE OPERATION 40 Channel AutoScan Operation Your cordless telephone has 40 operating channels. If you hear noise or other interference during your conversation, you can select a clearer channel by pressing the FORMAT/ CHANNEL button on the handset to switch to another spare channel.
