Telephone base installation

Install the telephone base as shown below.

Make sure that the electrical outlet is not controlled by a wall switch.

If you subscribe to digital subscriber line (DSL) high-speed Internet service through

your telephone line, you must install a DSL filter between the telephone line cord

and the telephone wall jack. The filter prevents noise and caller ID problems caused

by DSL interference. Contact your DSL service provider for more information about

DSL filters.

Use only the power adapter supplied with this product. To order a replacement,

visit our website at www.vtechphones.com or call 1 (800) 595-9511. In Canada,

go to www.vtechcanada.com or call 1 (800) 267-7377.

The power adapter is intended to be correctly oriented in a vertical or floor mount

position. The prongs are not designed to hold the plug in place if it is plugged into

a ceiling, under-the-table or cabinet outlet.

Even if you do not subscribe to any conventional telephone service, you can still

use the cell line alone without plugging in a telephone line cord.

CAUTION:

If you subscribe to telephone service from a cable company or a VoIP service provider, contact

your cable/VoIP service provider for more information.

Are you a new cable or VoIP subscriber?

If your answer is yes, the existing telephone jacks in your home may no longer

work. Your cable/VoIP service provider uses a different connection, seperate from

your old traditional telephone service, to connect the modem/router/terminal adapter

installed in your home.

To allow all existing telephone jacks to work, contact your telephone service

provider for solutions, such as rewiring services (fees may apply).

If your answer is no, your existing telephone jacks will continue to work as normal.

Did you subscribe to voicemail service from your telephone

service provider?

Your telephone has a built-in answering system and supports voicemail feature offered

by your telephone service provider (subscription is required, and fees may apply).

Refer to Answering system and voicemail on page 57 for more details.

To use the built-in answering system:

You may see this online Complete user’s manual on how to record your outgoing

announcement, retrieve messages and other related operations. You may also

refer to the Abridged user’s manual provided in your product package for

abbreviated instructions.

To use the voicemail:

To retrieve your voicemail messages, you typically dial an access number provided

by your telephone service provider, and then enter a security code. Contact your

telephone service provider for instructions on how to conﬁgure the voicemail

settings and listen to messages.

Introducing Bluetooth

Your new LS6191 telephone system with Bluetooth wireless technology has the

following features:

Pair and connect up to a maximum of two cell phones with the telephone base

to make and receive cell calls. Only one cell phone can be active on a call at

a time.

Make and receive calls using your cell phone plan while utilizing the ease and

comfort of your home telephone system.

Receive phonebook entries from your cell phone.

IMPORTANT INFORMATION

Refer to the user's manual of your Bluetooth enabled cell phone for more

information about how that device uses Bluetooth connectivity.

Bluetooth wireless technology operates within a short range (a maximum of

approximately 30 feet) from the telephone base. Keep connected cell phones

within this range. For optimal performance, keep your cell phone within 15 feet of

the telephone base while using the LS6191 cell line.

If your cell phone has poor reception in your home, the LS6191 cannot improve

the reception. However, if there is a location in your house with better reception,

you can leave your cell phone at that location while you use the LS6191 cell line.

If you experience poor sound quality, your cell phone may be too far away from

the telephone base. To improve Bluetooth signal strength, place your cell phone

closer to the telephone base (within 15 feet) and make sure that there are no

physical obstacles between the telephone base and the cell phone, such as large

furniture or thick walls.

handset and telephone base no longer displays.

Discoverable mode - before a Bluetooth enabled device can be paired, it must be

set to this mode. When pairing your cell phone, the telephone base will be set to this

mode. Depending on the manufacturer, this mode is sometimes referred to as Find

Me or Visibility.

Home line - your conventional telephone land line. On your LS6191 telephone base

and handset, press to use the home line.

Paired device - once a Bluetooth enabled cell phone has been paired with the

telephone base, it appears on the cell devices list. A maximum of two cell phones

can be paired with the telephone base.

Pairing - this refers to the process of Bluetooth enabled cell phone registering

device information with each other. The telephone base must be paired with

the Bluetooth enabled cell phone before it can be used. Depending on the

manufacturer, this is also referred to as Bonding.

PIN - by default, the PIN is 0000 for the telephone base and for most Bluetooth

devices. PIN information may be exchanged between Bluetooth devices before they

can be used. This is also known as a Passkey or Passcode.

Once you have paired and connected a device with the telephone base, you do not

need to repeat the procedure again unless you have replaced the paired cell phone

with a new one.

To pair and connect a cell phone:

Tap on the telephone base and you hear two beeps.

When slot 1 is empty, the base screen displays

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 completed.

When the cell phone is successfully paired and connected to

the telephone base, you hear two beeps. The corresponding

status icon ( 1 or 2) displays.

If you have trouble pairing your cell phone, it may not be compatible with your

LS6191. Check the Bluetooth compatibility list at www.vtechphones.com.

The pairing process may take up to one minute. If the pairing process fails,
