Uniden DECT2188-3 English Owners Manual - Page 19

Using Multi-station Features The expandable base works together with the accessory handsets to give you some useful multi-station features. (A station can be any cordless handset or the base.) You must have at least one accessory handset to use the features in this section. Expanding Your Phone  Your base supports a total of six DCX210 accessory handsets, including any that were supplied with your phone.  Your base might be compatible with other Uniden accessory handsets: please visit our website for a list of compatible handsets.  Accessory handsets must be registered to the base before you can use them. Handsets that aren't registered display a Handset not registered message. For instructions on registering handsets to this base, see page 28 or the manual for the accessory handset.  Any accessory handsets that came packaged with the base are already registered to that base for you.  If a handset was previously registered to a base, you have to reset it so you can register it to a new base (see page 28 for DCX210). Using Conference Calling When an outside call comes in, the base Outside call and two cordless handsets can join in a conference call with the outside caller. To join the call, just pick up the base corded Handset #2 handset or press Talk/flash on a cordless handset. To leave the conference call, hang up normally; the other station Handset #1 Base speakerphone or corded handset remains connected to the call. (You can also use the speakerphone for a conference call, just like you can with a normal call.) Using Privacy Mode You can prevent other stations from joining a call. Start your call as usual, then press Menu/select: the display shows Call Privacy. Press Menu/select again to turn privacy mode on (you'll see a in the display). When you hang up, privacy mode turns off automatically. As long you have privacy mode on, no other stations can interrupt your call. To allow another station to join the call, just turn privacy mode off by repeating the process above (press Menu/select twice). 17
