This cordless telephone uses a digital security code to provide protection against unintentional access to your base phone.
This security code blocks other cordless handsets to make calls through your base phone. A random security code will be assigned automatically between your base phone and
handset when you charge the battery pack for the first time. (The CHARGE lamp flashes during the initialization, then turns on when the initialization is complete.)
