Introducing Bluetooth

Your new AT&T TL86109 telephone system with Bluetooth wireless 

technology has the following features:

Pair up to four Bluetooth enabled devices (cell phones or headsets) with 

the telephone base.
Connect a maximum of two cell phones to make and receive cell calls. 

Only one cell phone can be active on a call at a time.
Connect a Bluetooth enabled headset for making and receiving line 1 or  

line 2 calls.
Conference any combination of cell and line 1 or line 2 calls. 
Make and receive calls using your cell phone plan with your cordless 

system handsets.

After plugging in the telephone base, wait at least 20 seconds before 

connecting a Bluetooth device. The screen shows Bluetooth system busy  

if you try to connect too soon.
Refer to the user's manual of your Bluetooth enabled cell phone or 

headset for more information about how that device uses Bluetooth 

connectivity.
Bluetooth wireless technology operates within a short range (up to 30 

feet) from the telephone base. Keep connected cell phones and headset 

within this range.
If your cell phone has poor reception in your home, the TL86109 cannot 

improve the reception. However, if there is a location in your house with 

better reception, you can leave your cell phone at that location while you 

use the TL86109 cell line. For optimal performance, the cell phone must 

be within 15 feet of the telephone base.
Charge your cell phone while it is connected to the telephone base. 

Your cell phone's battery discharges faster while it is connected to the 

telephone base via Bluetooth wireless technology.
Monitor your cell phone's usage because minutes may be deducted from 

your cellular plan for the duration of all cell calls, depending on the terms 

of your plan.

Refer to the Bluetooth setup section (pages 16-30) to learn how to set up 

your Bluetooth device. Refer to the Telephone operation section  
(pages 66-83) on how to operate your Bluetooth devices with your new AT&T 

TL86109 telephone system with Bluetooth wireless technology. Refer to the 
Troubleshooting section (pages 137-149) if you experience difficulty when 

using the telephone system.
