Using Multi-Handset Features
The expandable base works together with the accessory handsets to
give you some useful multi-handset features. You must have at least
two handsets to use the features in this section.
Expanding Your Phone
Your base supports a total of six cordless handsets: the one
that came with the base and up to five XDECT 7005 accessory
handsets.
Your base might be compatible with other Uniden accessory
handsets: please visit our website for a list of compatible handsets.
Accessory handsets must be registered to the base before you
can use them. Handsets that aren't registered display a
Handset
not registered
message. For instructions on registering handsets to
this base, see page 20 or the manual for the accessory handset.
Any accessory handsets that came packaged with the base are
already registered to that base for you.
If a handset was previously registered to a base, you have to reset
it so you can register it to a new base (see page 20 for XDECT
70051.

handsets can join in a conference call
with the outside caller. To join the call,

conference call, hang up normally; the

call. (You can also use the handset speakerphone for a conference
call, just like you can with a normal call.1
