Install the telephone base close to a telephone jack and a power outlet not connected to a wall switch.
For optimum range and better reception, place the telephone base in a central and open location.
Depending on the environmental conditions, make sure that your Bluetooth enabled cellular phone
is within 12 feet of where you install the telephone base in order to maintain a reliable connection
between your Bluetooth cell phone, the telephone base, and a cell tower (see below).
Avoid placing the telephone base too close to:
Communication devices such as: personal computers, computer routers, television sets, VCRs,
wireless routers (wireless broadband, Wi-Fi, or 802.11) or other cordless telephones.
Excessive heat sources.
Noise sources such as a window with trafc outside, motors, microwave ovens, refrigerators, or
uorescent lighting.
Excessive dust sources such as a workshop or garage.
Excessive moisture.
Extremely low temperature.
Mechanical vibration or shock such as on top of a
washing machine or work bench.

The handset provided is pre-registered as HANDSET 1. Additional handsets registered to the telephone
system will be assigned in sequential order. For instance, if the telephone system already has
HANDSET 1 and you wish to register another handset, the new handset will become HANDSET 2.
In normal operating conditions, up to four handsets can be used at the same time. For example, two
handsets can be on a HOME call and two handsets can be on a CELL call. However, while an active
handset is experiencing interference or losing signal due to range issues, you may not be able to use
the maximum of four handsets.
The LS5146 telephone
system comes with one
registered handset.
Up to 12 handsets (LS5105,
purchased separately)
can be registered to your
telephone system.
Expand your telephone system
Your LS5146 telephone system can accommodate up to 12 cordless handsets. You can add new
handsets to your telephone system (LS5105, purchased separately), but each handset must be
registered with the telephone base before use. To register new handsets to your telephone system,
see page 7.

Introducing Bluetooth
Your new LS5146 telephone system with Bluetooth wireless technology has the following features:
Pair up to eight Bluetooth enabled cell phones and/or headsets with the telephone base.
Connect a maximum of two cell phones to make and receive CELL calls. Only one cell phone can
be active on a call at a time.
Connect a Bluetooth enabled headset for making and receiving HOME calls.
Conference CELL and HOME calls.
Make and receive calls using your cell phone plan while utilizing the ease and comfort of your
home telephone system.
IMPORTANT INFORMATION
Refer to the user's manual of your cell phone or headset for more information about its Bluetooth
function.
Operate your Bluetooth device within 12 feet from the telephone base. Bluetooth technology
operates best within a short range. Keeping within 12 feet will maintain the connection quality of
the Bluetooth device with the telephone base.
Make sure that your cell phone has sufcient signal strength. You may need to move the cell phone
and telephone base to a location where the cell phone signal strength may be stronger.
Charge your Bluetooth cell phone while it is connected to the telephone base. Your cell phone's
battery will discharge faster while it is connected wirelessly to the telephone base.
Monitor your cell phone's usage because airtime is deducted from your cellular plan for the duration
of the CELL calls.
Refer to the Bluetooth setup section (page 19) to learn how to set up and manage your Bluetooth
device(s). Refer to the Telephone operation section (page 52) on how to operate your Bluetooth
devices with your new LS5146 telephone system with Bluetooth wireless technology. Refer to the
Troubleshooting section (page 87) if you experience difculty using the telephone system.
