Adding and registering handsets

Your telephone can accommodate up to four cordless handsets. You can add
new handsets (E598-1 or E598-2, sold separately) to the E6001/E6002B any-
time, but each handset must be registered with the telephone base before
use. Each handset must be registered separately.
The handsets provided with your E6001/E6002B are automatically registered
as handsets 1/handset 1 and handset 2 respectively. Additional handsets will
be assigned numbers in the order they are registered. You can register a max-
imum of 4 handsets to the telephone base.
The E6001 has one handset pre-registered as handsets 1. You can regis-
ter three additional handset, which will be assigned number 2, 3 and 4.
The E6002B has two handsets pre-registered as handsets 1 and 2. You can

Handsets purchased separately need to be registered to the

minutes before registering to the main telephone base.
To register a handset to your telephone base

handset screen after a few seconds, remove the handset and
place it in the telephone base again.
2. On the telephone base, press and hold
for about four seconds (until the red IN USE light on the
telephone base turns on) and then release the button. The
handset will show PLEASE WAIT... and it will take about 10
seconds to complete the registration. The handset will show
HS X REGISTERED and will beep if the registration is success-
ful.
NOTES:
1. If the registration is not successful, the display will show NOT REGISTERED.
To reset the handset, remove the handset from the telephone base and
place it back in. Try the registration process again.
2. You cannot register a handset if any telephone connected to the same tel-
ephone line is in use.
