Add and register a headset
Each newly purchased headset (IS6100) must be registered to a VTech DECT 6.0
cordless telephone system before use. Visit www.vtechphones.com for a list of
compatible telephones.
The telephone base recognizes and counts a headset the same as a handset. You
can place the headset charger anywhere you have an available power outlet.
Refer to your telephone user’s manual for a maximum number of headsets that you
can register to the telephone base. If you already have the maximum number of
handsets/headsets registered, you need to follow the deregistration information in
your telephone user’s manual before adding a new headset.
To register a headset:
Place the non-registered headset in the headset charger and allow it to charge for
at least 15 minutes before beginning registration. Remove the headset from the
headset charger. The light on the headset ashes slowly and alternately in red
and blue.
On the telephone base of the cordless telephone, press and hold
/FIND HANDSET for about four seconds until the red IN USE light turns on. Then
release the button.
Immediately place the headset in the headset charger. It takes about 60 seconds
to complete the registration process. The red IN USE light on the telephone base
turns off. The light on the headset turns red when it is registered but not fully
charged, or turns blue if it is registered and fully charged.
If the registration process is successful, you hear a dial tone when you press on
the headset. If the registration fails, you hear “Not registered” when you press on
the headset. The light on the headset ashes slowly and alternately in red and
blue. To reset the headset, remove it from the headset charger and then place it back
into its charger. Try the registration process again.

You cannot register a headset if any other system handset or headset is in use. You
can only register one headset to the telephone base at a time.
The headset must be deregistered before registering it to another telephone system.

Replace a headset
If you want to replace a headset or reassign the designated headset number of a
registered headset, you must deregister all handsets and headsets that are registered
to the same telephone base. Then register each handset and headset individually.
To make deregistration easier, read all of the instructions on this page before
you begin.
To deregister all headsets:
Press and hold /FIND HANDSET on the telephone base for about 10 seconds
until the IN USE light on the telephone base turns on and starts to ash. Then
release /FIND HANDSET.
Immediately press and release /FIND HANDSET again while the IN USE light is
still ashing. The IN USE light ashes for approximately seven seconds.
The deregistration process takes up to 10 seconds to complete. There is a
conrmation tone from the telephone base. The light ashes slowly and
alternately in red and blue when the deregistration process completes.
If the deregistration process is successful, you hear “Not registered” when you press
on the handset. If the deregistration fails, you may need to reset the telephone and
try again.
To reset:
Pick up the registered headset and press the RESET inset button with a paper clip
or similar object.
-OR-
Unplug the power from the telephone base, then plug it back in.
