Expanding your phone
Your base supports a total of 12 cordless handsets: the one that came
with the base and up to 11 DCX310, DRX312, or DWX317 accessory
handsets.
Your base might be compatible with other Uniden accessory
handsets: please visit our website for a list of compatible handsets.
Accessory handsets must be registered to the base before you can
use them. Handsets that aren't registered display a
Handset not
registered
message. For instructions on registering handsets to the
base, see page 37, or consult the accessory handset manual.
Any accessory handsets that came packaged with the base are already
registered for you.
If a handset was previously registered to a base, you have to reset it
so you can register it to a new base (see page 37 or the manual for
the accessory handset).
Conference calling
When an outside call comes in on the land line, two handsets can join
in a conference call with that outside caller.
To join an ongoing call, press
TaLk/fLash
or
sPEakER
.
To leave the conference call, hang up normally; the other handset
remains connected to the call.
Privacy mode
You can prevent other handsets from joining a land line call. Start your
call as usual, then press
MEnu/sELEcT
: the display shows
Call Privacy
.
Press
MEnu/sELEcT
again to turn privacy mode on (you’ll see in the
display). When you hang up, privacy mode turns off automatically.
As long you have privacy mode on, no other handsets can interrupt your
call. To allow another handset to join the call, press
MEnu/sELEcT
twice
to turn privacy mode off.
