Adding your new handset
Before using a newly purchased handset (LS5105), it must be registered with the telephone base. If
you already have 12 handsets registered to the telephone base and you wish to replace an existing
handset with the newly purchased one, see page 5.
Registering a handset
Before registering an additional handset, make sure that the handset battery
is installed and charged.
To register a new handset:
1. Place the unregistered handset in the telephone base.
2. Press the MENU softkey on the telephone base while in idle mode.
3. Press the UP and DOWN Navkeys to highlight Register Handset, then
press the SELECT softkey.
Registering Handset will appear on the telephone base display, then
Registration in progress... will appear on the handset display.
The registration process may take up to 90 seconds to complete.
When the registration process is complete, the telephone base and handset
will generate a conrmation tone. The newly registered handset will be
assigned the next handset registration number. For instance, if you already
have one registered handset, HANDSET 1, the next registered handset will
be HANDSET 2.
