Extra features
Adding extra security
The cordless telephone system has the unique advantages of
DECT (Digital Enhanced Cordless Telecommunications);
this means that no one can eavesdrop on your calls. In
addition, you can also protect the cordless telephone system
by changing the default security codes.
There are three codes for the security of the cordless
telephone system:
Home base station Personal Identification
Number (PIN) code: this code must be entered
before the home base station settings can be
changed.
Cordless phone PIN code: using this PIN code,
you can protect the cordless phone against use
and/or programming by other people.
Authentication Code (AC): this is a secret code of
the home base station which is necessary to
subscribe an extra cordless phone to the home
base station.
Changing the home base station
PIN code
To prevent unauthorized people accessing the settings of the
home base station it is secured by a PIN code. Each time you
want to change the settings of the home base station you must
enter the PIN code. You cannot switch off this security feature
but you can change the PIN code on the home base station.
You change the settings on the home base station using a
cordless phone connected to this base station.
When entering the PIN code you enter the unique
combination of numbers using the numeric keys on
the cordless phone, within the range of the home base
station. The default home base station PIN code is
1111.
Do not forget the PIN code of the home base station!
If you do, ask your dealer to reset the default PIN
code.
To change the PIN code of the home base station:
1. Press and then press the R key for 2 seconds.
Four dashes are displayed.
