The handset provided is pre-registered as HANDSET 1. Additional handsets registered to the
telephone system will be assigned in sequential order. For instance, if the telephone system already
has HANDSET 1 and you register another handset, it will become HANDSET 2.
In normal operating conditions, up to four handsets can be used at a time. For example, two handsets
can be on a HOME call and two handsets can be on a CELL call. However, if a cordless handset
is experiencing interference or is almost out of range, the number of handsets that can be used at
a time may be reduced.
The LS5145 telephone
system comes with one
registered handset.
Up to 12 handsets (LS5105
purchased separately)
can be registered to your
telephone system.

Introducing Bluetooth
Your new LS5145 telephone system with Bluetooth wireless technology has the following features:
Pair up to eight Bluetooth enabled cell phones and/or headsets with the telephone base.
Connect a maximum of two cell phones to make and receive CELL calls. Only one cell phone can
be active on a call at a time.
Connect a Bluetooth enabled headset for making and receiving HOME calls.
Conference CELL and HOME calls.
Make and receive calls using your cell phone plan while utilizing the ease and comfort of your
home telephone system.
IMPORTANT INFORMATION
Refer to your cell phone's or headset's user's manual for more information about its Bluetooth function.
Operate your Bluetooth device within 12 feet from the telephone base. Bluetooth technology
operates best within a short range. Keeping within 12 feet will maintain the connection quality of
the Bluetooth device with the telephone base.
Make sure that your cell phone has sufcient signal strength. You may need to move the cell phone
and telephone base to a location where the cell signal strength may be stronger.
Charge your Bluetooth cell phone while it is connected to the telephone base, as your cell phone's
battery will discharge faster while it is connected wirelessly to the telephone base.
Monitor your cell phone's usage, as airtime is deducted from your cellular plan for the duration
of CELL calls.
Refer to the Bluetooth setup section (page 19) to learn how to set up and manage your Bluetooth
device(s). Refer to the Telephone operation section (page 57) on how to operate your Bluetooth
devices with your new LS5145 telephone system with Bluetooth wireless technology. Refer to the
Troubleshooting section (page 98) if you experience difculty using the telephone system.

Glossary of terms
Below are some terms used in this user’s manual to help you become familiar with using your Bluetooth
devices and your new LS5415 telephone system.
Active Devices list - A maximum of two paired devices (two cell phones or one cell phone and one
headset) on the Active Devices list can be connected to the telephone base, but only one cell phone
or headset can be on a call at a time.
Bluetooth cell phone - Refers to a mobile Bluetooth enabled cell telephone.
CELL line - The communications service provided through your Bluetooth enabled cell telephone.
Connected - A Bluetooth device (cell phone or headset) can only be used when it is connected to
the telephone base. When a Bluetooth device is connected to the telephone base and active on the
Active Devices list, it will be ready for use.
Disconnected - An X in front of a device in the Active Devices list will appear and a line will appear
over devices 1 and/or 2 in the icon status bar when a Bluetooth device is disconnected from the
telephone base.
Discoverable mode - Before a Bluetooth device can be paired, it must be set in this mode. When
pairing your cell phone, the telephone base will be set in this mode. When pairing a headset, the
headset must be set in this mode. Depending on the manufacturer, this mode is sometimes referred
to as Find Me or Visibility.
HOME line - Your conventional telephone land line.
Paired Devices list - Once Bluetooth devices have been paired with the telephone base, they will
appear in the Paired Devices list. A maximum of eight devices can be paired with the telephone
base, but only two can be on the Active Devices list.
Pairing - This refers to the process of Bluetooth devices registering device information with each other.
The telephone base must be paired with a Bluetooth enabled cell phone or headset before the Bluetooth
device(s) can be used. Depending on the manufacturer, this is also referred to as Bonding.
PIN - By default, the PIN is 0000 for the telephone base and for most Bluetooth devices. PIN information
must be exchanged between Bluetooth devices before they can be used. This is also known as a
Passkey or Passcode.

your Bluetooth
device(s) are not

Bluetooth
Bluetooth at glance
The telephone base allows you to pair up to eight Bluetooth devices. You can have a maximum of two
paired devices connected at anytime (two cell phones, or one cell phone and one headset), but only
one cell phone or headset can be on a call at a time.
Once you have paired a device with the telephone base, the pairing information will be stored on
the Paired Devices list (page 23). To use a paired device, it must be connected and on the Active
Devices list (page 26).
When a device on the Active Devices list becomes disconnected, the Auto Connect function will
automatically search for and re-connect to that device. If the telephone base is unable to connect to
the device, the Connect to Device screen will appear on the display. Pressing the YES softkey allows
the Auto Connect function to continue searching for the device. Pressing the NO softkey ends the
search, and the device will remain disconnected.
To learn more about managing your Bluetooth device(s), see the Managing your Devices section
(page 23). To help you setup your Bluetooth device(s), please follow the instructions in each section
and refer to the Troubleshooting section for help (page 98).
IMPORTANT INFORMATION
Once you pair a device with the telephone base, you do not have to repeat the pairing procedure
again, unless you delete the device from the Paired Devices list (page 23).
Press CANCEL on the telephone base at anytime to return to a previous menu.
When adding, removing, or replacing a Bluetooth on the Active Devices list, all connected devices
will temporarily disconnect until the action is complete. It may take up to two minutes to reconnect.
