Link to Cell

Link to cell feature

You 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:

RYour cellular phone must support the Hands Free Profile (HFP) specification.

RYou may pair 2 cellular phones and 1 Bluetooth headset.

RThe 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).

ROnly 2 Bluetooth devices can be used with the unit at the same time (for example, 2 cellular lines, or the Bluetooth headset and 1 cellular line*1).

RLocate 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.

*1 You cannot use a Bluetooth headset to talk on a cellular line.

Pairing a cellular phone

Important:

RFor more details and the list of compatible cellular phones, please visit our Web site: http://shop.panasonic.com/bluetooth-phone

RBefore 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.

1Base unit:

Press and hold MCELL 1N or MCELL 2N for about 5 seconds.

R After the corresponding CELL indicator on the base unit starts flashing, the rest of the procedure must be completed within 5 minutes.

2Your 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”).

R If your cellular phone prompts you to confirm the passkey, tap MOKN or otherwise to accept the pairing request.

3Base 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.

Note:

RIf the cellular phone has already paired to the base unit, it is overwritten.

RMake sure that your cellular phone is set to connect to this product automatically. Refer to your cellular phone’s operating instructions.

RMake sure you cancel your cellular phone’s current pairing if you want to pair it to the other line (page 17).

RThe 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 47). (This depends on the version and type of cellular phone you are using.)

Unpairing a cellular phone

You can cancel the pairing of a cellular phone that is stored in the base unit.

RThe units selected with this setting have the alert feature (page 47) applied to them.

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 36).

–“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.

–“On (without Talking CID)”: The handset and base unit use your cellular phone’s ringer tone. Caller information is not announced even if the Talking Caller ID is turned on.

Important:

RTo use this feature, your cellular phone must support Bluetooth in-band ringtone. Refer to your cellular phone’s operating instructions.

To change the handset ringer tone for a cellular line, see page 34.

Auto connection to the Bluetooth devices (cellular phones)

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”.

–for intercom calls or calls received by call waiting.

–when a landline call (or cellular call) is being received during a cellular call (or landline call).

RBlocked calls are logged in the caller list.

Storing unwanted callers

The unit can block calls by storing the desired items in the call block list beforehand (Caller ID subscribers only).

–“Block a single number”: The unit blocks calls from specific phone numbers stored in the call block list.

–“Block range of numbers”: The unit blocks calls that begin with a number stored in the call block list, such as a toll-free phone number prefix or certain area codes.

–“Block unknown CID”: The unit blocks calls that have no phone number.

Single phone numbers and ranges of numbers can be stored in the call block list up to 150 items in total.

Blocking unwanted callers:

When a call is received, the unit rings once*1 while caller information is being received.

If the caller’s phone number matches an entry in the call block list, the unit emits no sound to the caller, and disconnects the call.

*1 If you do not want this one ring to sound, select “No” in “Turning the first ring on/ off” (page 27).
