Bluetooth setup

To use a Bluetooth enabled cell phone 

with your 

DS6611

, you must first pair and 

connect it with the telephone base. All 

DS6611 

handsets can be used to make or 

answer on the cell phone line. 
Bluetooth wireless technology operates 

within a short range (30 feet). When 

you pair a Bluetooth cell phone to the 

telephone base, move closer to the 

telephone base to maintain sufficient 

signal strength. For optimal performance, 

keep your cell phone within 15 feet of the 

telephone base while using the cell line.

Add a Bluetooth enabled cell 

phone

Before you begin, make sure that 
you have cellular coverage and your 
Bluetooth enabled cell phone is not 
connected to any other Bluetooth 
devices. Refer to your cell phone user's 
manual to learn how to search for or 
add new Bluetooth devices.
All paired cell phones are shown on the 
cell devices list. 
Once you have paired and connected a 
device with the telephone base, you do 
not need to repeat the procedure again 
unless you want to replace the existing 
paired cell phone with a new one.

To pair and connect a cell phone:

Choose a slot to pair the cell phone. 
Press and hold   

CELL 1

 and/or  

 

CELL 2/HEADSET

 on the  

telephone base for about four 
seconds until the   

CELL 1

 and/or  

 

CELL 2/HEADSET

 light flashes.

If there is already a cell phone in 
the slot, the existing cell phone will 
be erased from cell devices list.

Turn on the Bluetooth feature of  
your cell phone. Once your cell  
phone finds your VTech phone 
(

VTech DS6611

), press the 

appropriate key on your cell phone to 
continue the pairing process. 

Your cell phone may prompt you to 
enter the PIN of the telephone base. 
The default PIN of the telephone 
base is 

0000

.

All cell phones that are connected to 
the telephone base are disconnected 
temporarily until the pairing process 
is complete.
