DS6421-2/DS6421-3/DS6421-4
Bluetooth setup
To use a Bluetooth enabled cell phone or headset with your
DS6421, you must first pair and connect your Bluetooth
device(s) with the telephone base. All DS6421 handsets can
be used to make or answer calls on the cell phone line.
Bluetooth wireless technology operates within a short range
(a maximum of approximately 30 feet). When you pair a
Bluetooth cell phone or Bluetooth headset to the telephone
base, make sure your Bluetooth device is close to the
telephone base to maintain sufficient signal strength.
Keep your Bluetooth device close
to the telephone base to maintain
a reliable connection.
