Before you can make or receieve telephone calls you need
to register the handset at the base station.
Place the handset in the base station and
leave it there until registration is complete.
The registration display will appear. This may
take up to 5 minutes depending on the
charge level of the battery.
The . symbol will flash on the display.
Unplug the power supply unit (220V/230V)
from the mains socket.
The handset must remain in the base sta-
tion. Plug the power supply unit back into
the mains socket.

stop flashing and the normal standby display
will appear. The handset is now registered at
this base station.
