Changing the Handset to Base Code
Your phone ships with a special identication code to connect any registered handsets to this particular base.
Normally, you will never have to change this handset to base code, but in the rare situation that you suspect another
cordless telephone is using the same code or if you are instructed to change this code by a manufacturer’s Call
Center Representative, you can change the code. To change the handset to base code:
Reset all of your handsets (see Resetting the Handset on page 55).1)
Re-register each handset (see Registering accessory handsets on page 12).2)

Traveling Out of Range
When the handset is in standby, the handset will display OUT OF RANGE.
During a call, if you move your handset too far from your base, noise may increase. If you pass the range limit of the
base, the handset will beep, display OUT OF RANGE, and then go to standby. The base will maintain the connection
for thirty seconds after the handset goes out of range. If you move the handset back within range of the base within
thirty seconds, press [
