Add a Bluetooth enabled cell
phone
Before you begin, make sure that
you have cellular coverage and your
Bluetooth enabled cell phone is not
connected to any other Bluetooth
devices. Refer to your cell phone user's
manual to learn how to search for or
add new Bluetooth devices.
All paired cell phones are shown on the
cell devices list.
Once you have paired and connected a
device with the telephone base, you do
not need to repeat the procedure again
unless you want to replace the existing
paired cell phone with a new one.
To pair and connect a cell phone:
1. Choose a slot to pair the cell phone.
Press and hold CELL 1 and/or
CELL 2 on the telephone base for
about four seconds until the CELL 1
and/or CELL 2 light flashes.
• If there is already a cell phone in
the slot, the existing cell phone will
be erased from cell devices list.
2. Turn on the Bluetooth feature of
your cell phone. Once your cell
phone finds your VTech phone
(VTech DS6771), press the
appropriate key on your cell phone to
continue the pairing process.
• Your cell phone may prompt you to
enter the PIN of the telephone base.
The default PIN of the telephone
base is 0000.
• All cell phones that are connected to
the telephone base are disconnected
temporarily until the pairing process
is complete.
When the cell phone is successfully
paired and connected to the telephone
base, the corresponding status icon
(
1
or
2
) displays. The corresponding
device light (CELL 1 and/or CELL 2)
turns on.
The pairing process may take up to
one minute. If the pairing process fails,
turn off the Bluetooth feature on your
cell phone and on the DS6771 by
pressing CELL 1/ CELL 2. Then repeat
the steps above to pair and connect
again. In some cases, it may take you
a few attempts to complete the pairing
process.
The steps for the pairing process may
vary for different cell phones. If this
happens, follow the prompts on your cell
phone and your DS6771 to complete
the pairing process.
If you have trouble pairing your cell
phone, it may not be compatible with
your DS6771. Check the Bluetooth
compatibility list at
www.vtechphones.com.
Add a Bluetooth enabled
headset

not in use.
2. Press or to choose Bluetooth,

• If there is already a cell device in
the slot, the existing cell phone will
be erased from cell devices list.
4. Set your headset to discoverable
mode (refer to the user’s manual of
your headset on the Bluetooth feature
of your headset). Once your handset
finds your headset, press SELECT.
• Enter the PIN of your headset
if required. The PIN for most
Bluetooth devices is 0000 (refer
to the user’s manual of your
headset), then press SELECT.
5. When the headset is successfully
paired and connected to the
telephone base, the
2
icon displays.
The CELL 2 device light turns on.
The pairing process may take up to
one minute. If the pairing process fails,
turn off the Bluetooth feature on your
headset and on the DS6771 by pressing
CELL 2. Then repeat the steps above
to pair and connect again. In some
cases, it may take you a few attempts to
complete the pairing process.
When a connected headset is charging,
it may disconnect from the telephone
base and the CELL 2 light on the
telephone base turns off. For some
headset models, you may need to turn
on the headset and reconnect it to the
telephone base again.
If you have trouble pairing your
headset, it may not be compatible
with your DS6771. Check the
