Expanding Your Phone
Adding accessory handsets
Your phone supports a total of six cordless handsets, including any that were supplied with your phone. You can now place a fully-featured cordless handset anywhere AC power is available to connect the charging cradle.
Your phone is compatible with the following Uniden DECT accessory handsets: DECT2015, DECT2035 and DECT2005. (Please visit our website at www.uniden.com.au for Australian models or www.uniden.co.nz for New
Zealand models for the most up-to-date list of compatible handsets.)
For instructions on connecting the charging cradle, see page 8.
If you purchase any accessory handsets separately, you must register the handsets to the base before you can use them. (Accessory handsets that come packaged with a base are already registered to that base.)
Registering accessory handsets
When charged, registered handsets display a handset ID number. Handsets that have not been registered display:
To register a DECT2005 accessory handset:
1)
Charge the handset for 15-20 hours.
2)
Place the handset in the base cradle for about thirty seconds. Handset Registering will appear in the LCD.
3)
When the handset has registered to the base, the LCD will display Registration complete then show the handset ID number.
4)
On the handset, press and hold # until the handset beeps and displays Handset Registering.
5)
When the handset has registered to the base, the LCD will display Registration complete then show the handset ID number.
If the display shows Registration failed, repeat the process again.
Note: If a handset has ever been registered to a base, reset the handset before you register it to a new base (see

Resetting the Handset on page 60). Or to use multiple bases, see the next section.
Using Multiple Bases
The handsets supplied with your phone can be registered to a total of four different bases. Compatible bases include the DECT 2015 and DECT 2035 series. (See our website or contact Customer Service for an up-to-date list of compatible models.)
Note: To confi rm how many bases the handset is registered to, open the Select Base submenu (follow the step 1 of
Selecting the base on page 15). Press END to close the list and return to standby.
Registering the handset to another base
To register a handset to another base:
1)
Make sure the handset battery is fully charged.
2)
If the other base has an LCD display:
With the phone in standby, press MENU/SELECT on the base. Move the cursor to select the Register Handset menu, and then press MENU/SELECT. Handset Registering will appear.
If the other base does not have an LCD display:
Disconnect the base AC adapter. Then press and hold the Find Handset key* while you reconnect the

adapter. Keep holding the Find Handest key until the charge LED starts to blink. *This key might be labeled Find or Find HS.
3)
On the handset, press MENU/SELECT. Select the Register Base menu. Handset Registering will appear in the display. (After step 2, you have thirty seconds to complete this step 3 before the system returns to standby.)
4)
Wait approximately thirty seconds. Registration complete will be displayed to indicate the handset has been registered to the base and a handset ID will be automatically assigned. The handset assigns its own ID to this base, too. (Since the base ID is based on the order in which the handset was registered to the different bases, a base may have different IDs on each handset.)
If Registration failed appears in the LCD, please try these steps again.
Note: The handset will stay connected to the new base until you select a different base (see below).

Selecting the base
After you register your handset to more than one base you can set the handset to automatically search for a new base if the base it’s currently connected is unavailable or out of range. You can also manually select which base you want the handset to connect to; for example, if you have one base with an answering machine, you can connect to that base to check messages from the handset.
1)
With the phone in standby, press MENU/SELECT. Select the Handset Setup menu, and then the Select Base submenu.
2)
Move the cursor to select the base you want to connect to, or choose Auto to have the handset automatically search for and select base.
3)
Press MENU/SELECT. Searching will appear in the display.
4)
When the base is found, the handset will return to standby. If the base is not found, “Searching” continues to appear. You can repeat the procedure listed above to return back to the original connection or to fi nd the different base.
Note: You cannot change bases during a call.
