Link to cell feature

ou can connect your base unit and cellular phone using Bluetooth wireless technology, so that you can make or answer cellular calls using your phone system. This allows you to: – use the unit to talk on cellular calls even if some

areas of your home have poor cellular reception, simply by placing your cellular phone in an area with good reception.

– talk on cellular calls even if your cellular phone

is in your pocket or bag.

– enjoy cordless cellular calls even if your cellular

phone plugged in and charging.

Important:

R Your cellular phone must support the Hands

Free Profile (HFP) specification.

R You may pair 2 cellular phones and 1 headset. R The unit can be used to talk on 2 lines at the

same time (for example, 2 cellular lines, or the landline and 1 cellular line).

R Only 2 Bluetooth devices can be used with the

unit at the same time (for example, 2 cellular lines, or the headset and 1 cellular line).

R Locate your cellular phone near the base unit. If

the cellular phone is too close to the base unit during a cellular call, you may hear noise. For best performance, we recommend placing the cellular phone between 0.6 m to 3 m (2 feet to 10 feet) away from the base unit.

Pairing a cellular phone

mportant:

R For more details and the list of compatible

cellular phones, please visit our Web site: http://shop.panasonic.com/bluetooth-phone

R Before pairing a Bluetooth enabled cellular

phone to the base unit, make sure that no other Bluetooth device such as a Bluetooth headset is connected to your cellular phone.

1 Base unit:

Press and hold MCELL 1N or MCELL 2N for a few seconds. R After the corresponding CELL indicator on

the base unit starts flashing, the rest of the procedure must be completed within 5 minutes.

2 Y

our cellular phone:

While the corresponding CELL indicator is flashing, follow the instructions of your cellular phone to enter the pairing mode. R Depending on your cellular phone, it may

ask you to enter the Bluetooth PIN (default: “0000”). If your cellular phone shows PassKey confirmation on its display, follow the directions to proceed.

3 Base unit:

Wait until a long beep sounds. R It may take more than 10 seconds to

complete pairing.

R When the corresponding CELL indicator

lights up, the cellular phone is connected to the base unit. You are ready to make cellular calls.

R Make sure you cancel your cellular phone’s

current pairing if you want to pair it to the other line (page 16).

R The default setting for the alert feature is “On”,

so when you pair your cellular phone to the base unit, this feature may be activated (page 54). (This depends on the version and type of cellular phone you are using.)

Ring as cell mode

Once this feature is turned on, the handset and base unit ring using the same ringer tone as your cellular phone. The following settings are available: – “Off”: Turn this feature off to use the ringer

tones of the handset and base unit. Caller information is announced depending on the Talking Caller ID setting (page 41).

– “On (with Talking CID)” (default): The

handset and base unit use your cellular phone’s ringer tone. Caller information is announced even if the Talking Caller ID is turned off.

After pairing, your Bluetooth devices are connected to the base unit. If you move the Bluetooth devices out of base unit range, the Bluetooth devices are disconnected from the base unit. This feature allows the base unit to try to reconnect the Bluetooth devices at regular intervals when it returns within base unit range. You can set the interval. The default setting is “1 min”.
