Bluetooth setup
To use a Bluetooth enabled cell phone with your
DS6673
, you
must first pair and connect your Bluetooth cell phone(s) with the
telephone base. All
DS6673
handsets can be used to make or
answer calls on the cell lines.
Bluetooth wireless technology operates within a short range (a
maximum of approximately 30 feet). When you pair a Bluetooth
cell phone to the telephone base, place your Bluetooth cell phone
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.
Pair and connect your first Bluetooth cell phone
Before you begin, make sure you have cellular coverage
and your Bluetooth enabled cell phone is not connected
to any other Bluetooth device.
Press and hold
CELL 1
or
CELL 2
on the
telephone base for about four seconds. You
hear two beeps and the
CELL 1
or
CELL 2
light blinks.
Turn on the Bluetooth feature of your cell
phone. Once your cell phone finds your
VTech phone (
VTech
DS6673
), 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
.
When the cell phone is connected to the
telephone base, you hear two beeps.
The corresponding status icon (
1
or
2
)
displays. The corresponding device light
(
CELL 1
or
CELL
2
) turns on.
If you have trouble pairing your cell phone, it may not
be compatible with your DS6673. Check the Bluetooth
compatibility list at www.vtechphones.com.
The pairing process may take up to one minute. If the pairing
process fails, try again.
The steps for the pairing process may vary for different cell
phones. If this happens, follow the prompts on your cell
phone and your
DS6673
to complete the pairing process.
