must be registered with the base before use.

Additional handsets will be assigned numbers in the order they are registered (Handset 2,
Handset 3, or Handset 4). You can register a maximum of 4 handsets.
The E5643B has 3 handsets automatically registered as Handset 1, 2 and 3. You can regis-
ter one additional handset, which will be assigned number 4.

register any additional handsets to the E5644B.
