     If you want to use the MULTIRANGE different base, just register the charger to the new base. The charger automatically erases the link to the old base when it registers to the new one.  Only register the charger to one base at a time. If more than one base is in registration mode at the same time, you can't control which base the charger registers to. Placing the MULTIRANGE Here are a few tips for placing your MULTIRANGE so that you get the clearest signal and the maximum range:  Make sure you have good reception from the base.  Put the charger at least 35 feet away from the base or any other charger. (If you put the charger on a different floor from the base, don't forget to allow 35 feet vertically, also.)  If possible, mount the charger on the wall. Picking the best spot The best spot for the MULTIRANGE charger is as far from the base as possible while still maintaining a good signal, or near the edge of the base’s coverage area. To find the edge of the coverage area: 1. Stand near the base and make a call on the handset.
