Make sure your cell phone’s Bluetooth feature is turned on and in pairing mode. Consult your owner’s manual for information on pairing your cell phone with another Bluetooth device, including how to put it in discoverable mode. The cordless telephone must also be in discoverable mode. Follow the directions in the User’s Manual on pairing. Pairing is initiated from the cordless handset.
