Paired Devices
- Once a Bluetooth device has been paired
with the telephone base, it will be identified as registered to
the telephone base.

- This refers to the process of two Bluetooth devices
registering device information with each other. The

IMPORTANT INFORMATION
• Refer to your mobile phone user's guide for more
information about its Bluetooth function.
• Make sure that your Bluetooth enabled mobile phone is
between one to 12 feet away from the telephone base in
order to maintain a clear and consistent connection between
your Bluetooth mobile phone, telephone base and cell tower.
• Make sure that your Bluetooth enabled mobile phone has
sufficient signal strength. You may need to move the
Bluetooth enabled mobile phone and telephone base to a
location where the cellular signal may be stronger.
• Charge your Bluetooth mobile phone while it is
connected to the telephone base because your mobile
phone's battery will discharge faster while it is connected
wirelessly to the telephone base.
• Monitor your mobile phone's usage because airtime is
deducted from your cellular plan for the duration of the
CELLULAR
calls.
