First steps
Placing the handset in the charging cradle
Place the handset in the charging cradle with its
display facing forward

The supplied handset is registered with the base at the factory. You do not need to register it. If
you wish to use your handset with a different base or use further handsets with your base, you
will have to register them manually,

charged.
Setting the date and time
Set the date and time so that the correct date and time can be assigned to incoming calls, and
so that the alarm can be used. You can set the date and time on any registered handset
(
