First Time Phone Use
When you turn on the phone for the first time, you will be asked to:
1.
Select the language. If the language you want does not appear on-screen, scroll to find the correct language and
press
Select
to confirm.
2.
Review the agreement. Use the navigation button to move up or down. Read the agreement and press
Accept
to
proceed.
3.
Set your country code. For the phone to work correctly according to your country’s standards, you must use the
code for the country you are calling from.
For example, the U.S. and Canada use the country code of 1. If you don’t
know your Country’s code, see “Appendix A, Troubleshooting” for a list. Press Clear to make a correction. Press
Enter
to confirm the country code.
4.
Set your area code. To be able to return local, national or international calls received on the Landline, you must set
your area code. Your phone will update the information and reset itself. If your country does not use area codes,
leave this field blank.
5.
Create a Skype Account or sign in to your existing Skype Account. Each Skype account has a unique Skype Name
with a password. If your Skype Name is the same as another Skype user, it will not be accepted. Your existing
Skype Name needs to be at least 6 characters and can be any combination of letters, numbers and symbols. Your
password needs to be at least 4 characters. This password is different from the system PIN of the phone. Each
phone user can have their own Skype account.

Registering the Handset
To make calls the handset must be registered to the base unit. This is preset. However, if you bought an extra
handset or de-registered a handset, you may see the message
Unregistered
on the phone’s LCD screen. To
register the handset when the Unregistered message has displayed:
1.
Press
Reg
.
2.
Press the middle button (PAGE) on the base station. When you release it, the lights will flash.
3.
If asked, enter the System PIN (default: 0000). Use
Clear
to make a correction.
4.
Press
OK
to confirm. The handset will start searching for the base station.
5.
After successful registration, the signal strength icon will display steadily on the handset screen. If
registration failed, repeat these steps.
Checking the Signal Strength
The signal icon displays the link status between the handset and base station. If the signal icon displays, the
handset and base station are communicating and calls can be made and received.
If you don’t see the Signal Strength icon, you may be too far from the base station. Move the handset closer to
the base station. If you are on a call and losing signal strength, you will hear warning tones, which gives you
time to move the handset and base station closer together.
NOTE:
Your base station can register up to 4 handsets. When 4 handsets are registered, the base
station memory becomes full and no further handsets can be registered to that base station.

range.
