8.1 Operating additional 
units
Additional handsets: Additional handsets are 
available for purchase (page 11). Up to 6 
handsets can be registered to a single base unit. 
Using additional handsets allows you to have an 
intercom call while simultaneously conducting a 
call to an outside line.
L
Additional handsets have answering device 
controls printed on their cases, however, 
remote operation of the base unit’s 
answering device is not possible.
Additional base units: You can register and 
operate your handset with up to 4 base units. 
Each base unit forms 1 radio cell. If the individual 
base units are linked to the same telephone line 
then you can extend the operating range of the 
system by positioning the base units so that the 
two radio cells overlap. If the handset is set to 
“AUTO” in base unit selection (page 62), then in 
standby mode the handset will automatically 
swap to the second base if the range on the first 
base is exceeded. It is not possible to transfer 
calls between base units (only between 
handsets linked to the same base unit).
Example: Additional handsets registered to 2 
base units.
Note:
L
Calls are disconnected when the handset 
moves from one radio cell to another.
