Placing the handset in the base station and registering

If you have purchased a model with multiple handsets, repeat the registration process for each individual handset. Handsets are assigned the lowest available internal number (1–4). If more than one handset is registered to the base station, the internal handset number appears in the top left of the display, e.g. 2. If the internal numbers 1–4 are already assigned to other devices, number 4 will be overwritten.
Please note
Each key press interrupts the automatic registration.
If automatic registration does not work, the handset will have to be registered
manually (
Only place the handset in the base station or charging cradle that is intended for
it.
