Plug the cord of the battery pack into the handset and place the battery in the case.4. Slide battery cover until it clicks in place. Charge 10 hours before first use.To maximize your battery's life, we recommend that you periodically fully discharge the battery, and then recharge it. To do this, unplug your phone line cord from the wall phone jack. Press the TALK button, and allow the handset to remain on for 10 hours. Reconnect the phone cord to the wall phone jack. Return the handset to the handset charger and allow it to fully charge for 10 hours.

HANDSET REGISTRATIONWhen the handset is placed in the base station registration outlet, it transmits a registration packet to the base station via the registration outlet. The base station enables registration and broadcasts registration data via air interface. Handset locks to this base station and registration is complete.When a new handset transmits a registration packet to a base station, the base station checks how many handsets have been already registered. In case 4 handsets are already registered, the base station starts to search for the handsets. If it can locate all 4 handsets, then the 5th handset can't be registered, and the registration is blocked. In case a handset that already is registered is out of range, or for other reasons does not reply to the search and notification request, it will be de-registered and the registration procedure for the new handset is initiated.The handset registration procedure must be completed within 45 seconds.The second handset cannot be registered during an ongoing registration procedure.In case of heavy air interference, e.g. when many 2.4GHz products are active in the same area, registration duration may be longer since registration consists of data transfer, that in contrast to audio, has to be error free.The way to de-register a handset and register it to another base station is to switch off the base station and plug the handset in another base station. After switching off the base station, the handset is no longer locked to this base station and can be registered to another base. When the handset is connected to the other base station registration outlet, a new registration will take place and the old registration doesn't exist. Note: de-registration is not a normal user operation.IMPORTANT NOTE1.Place each handset in the main base unit to register it to the base.2.Leave each unit in the base for up to 15 seconds until a long beep is heard, indicating that the handset is registered to the base unit.3. The LCD display on the handset will read "READY".4. Make sure to do this for all handsets.14IDS Y S T E ME PANDABLECallerMULTI HANDSETDIGITALSouthwestern BellFreedom PhoneSPREAD SPECTRUMPAGECHARGEGHz2.4MNOGHI 5*4PQRS7#06WXYZ8TUVOPER9PROGTALK1MEMMUTEDELFLASHDEF32JKLABCINTCMREDIALPAUSECANCEL
