Deregistering a handset
You may need to deregister your handsets if:
You have 12 registered handsets and need to replace a handset.
-OR-
You wish to change the designated handset number of your registered 
handsets.
You must first deregister ALL the handsets, and then register each handset 
you wish to use again, one at a time.
Please read carefully through all the instructions on this page before 
beginning the deregistration process.
To deregister all handsets
1. Press and hold  /HANDSET LOCATOR on the telephone base for about 
10 seconds (until the IN USE light starts to flash), then release the  
/HANDSET LOCATOR button.
2. Immediately press  /HANDSET LOCATOR while the IN USE light is still 
flashing. (The light flashes for about seven seconds. If the light stops 
flashing, pick up the handset and place it back into the telephone base, 
then start again with step one above.)

on base 4sec and 2.Then press # on handset before registering the 
handset(s) again.

registration instructions on the previous page.

the system date and time information needs to be reset. For instructions, 
see Set date/time on page 12.

again. To reset, unplug the power from the telephone base and plug it back in.
