Panasonic KXFC278FX Operating Guide

Up to 6 cordless handsets can be registered to a single
base unit. Additional cordless handsets will give you the
freedom to, for example, have an intercom call with
another cordless handset while a third cordless handset
is on an outside call.

Important:
R The additional cordless handset model

recommended for use with this unit is noted on
page 9. If another cordless handset model is
used, certain operations (cordless handset
settings, base unit settings, etc.) may not be
available.

The supplied cordless handset and base unit are
pre-registered. If for some reason the cordless handset
is not registered to the base unit (for example,   flashes
even when the cordless handset is near the base unit),
re-register the cordless handset.
After purchasing an additional cordless handset, register
it to the base unit. Ensure that the additional cordless
handset is switched ON. If it is not ON, press and hold
