Bluetooth; Glossary Of Terms - VTech DS6161 User Manual

Bluetooth

Your new DS6161 telephone system with
Bluetooth wireless technology has the following
features:
• Pair and connect up to a maximum of
two cell phones with the telephone
base to make and receive cell calls.
Only one cell phone can be active on a
call at a time.
• Make and receive calls using your cell
phone plan while utilizing the ease
and comfort of your home telephone
system.
• Receive directory entries from your cell
phone.
IMPORTANT INFORMATION
• Refer to the user's manual of your
Bluetooth enabled cell phone for more
information about how that device uses
Bluetooth connectivity.
• Bluetooth wireless technology operates
within a short range (a maximum
of approximately 15 feet) from the
telephone base. Keep connected cell
phones within this range. For optimal
performance, place your cell phone
next to the telephone base while using
the DS6161 cell line.
• If your cell phone has poor reception in
your home, the DS6161 cannot improve
the reception. However, if there is
a location in your house with better
reception, you can leave your cell phone
at that location while using the DS6161
cell line.
• If you experience poor sound quality,
place your cell phone closer to the
DS6161 to ensure strong Bluetooth
signal strength. Make sure there are no
physical obstacles between the DS6161
and the cell phone, such as large
furniture or thick walls.
• Charge your cell phone while it is
connected to the telephone base. Your
cell phone's battery will discharge
faster while it is connected to the
telephone base via Bluetooth wireless
technology.
• Monitor your cell phone's usage
because minutes are deducted from
your cellular plan for the duration of all
cell calls.
Refer to Bluetooth setup to learn how to set up
and manage your Bluetooth enabled devices.
Refer to Telephone operation on how to operate
your Bluetooth devices with your new DS6161
