Add a phone to base - Panasonic KX-TGA600B Cordless Expansion Handset

Additional handsets must be registered to the base. Registration to the base requires specific key entries doubtlessly brand specific. A user manual may be helpful regarding such. Here is the procedure for Panasonic phones:

It would help if you add a comment with the model number of your phone. For the KX-TG6572R, to set the ringer to off on the base, press and hold the Down button on the base until the phone beeps when the phone is in standby mode. Note: if the phone has an intercom mode, the ringer for the intercom is never silenced.

I hope this helps. If this procedure doesn't work for your phone, please add a comment with your phone's model number. Then, I will try to find additional information about the ringer volume control for you. (I know some phones have a physical switch on the base for the ringer volume.)

First make to get a compatible handset.

For the Uniden D1660-2, the compatible handsets are DCX160 and DWX337. Make sure that you have not exceeded the number of handsets that the phone can support. The D1660-2 can support 12 handsets unless you use any DWX337 handsets. Then the limit is 6. (If you have more handsets, you will need to deregister some of them first.) Then allow the handset to charge. If the handset is reading "not registered", then place it into the base unit. You should see "Handset Registering" for about 30 seconds; then it will read Registration Complete. The manual for the Uniden D1660-2 is available here: http://www.uniden.com/content/ebiz/uniden/resources/ownersmanuals/D1660-2om.pdf . This is the most common Registration for Uniden phones; there are a few exceptions (depending on the base or the replacement handset). Check the appropriate manual (see below to find the manuals).

For the DECT4096, press Menu on the base and then navigate to Handset Register. When you see Handset Registering on the base display, press and hold # on the handset to be registered until you see Handset Registering. (It takes about 2 seconds.) After the display changes to Handset Registered, check for dial tone.

On a few Uniden phones, there is a Page/Handst Register button on the base. On those you navigate through the Handset menu to Handset Register (Menu > Handset menu > Handset Registration). Then press and hold the Page button until you hear a beep. Then wait for the registration to be completed.

Most Uniden manuals are available here: http://www.uniden.com/scat/cordlessphones_mnl . Select your type of Uniden phone and scroll through the list to your model or use the search box to directly search for your phone and the manual.

I hope this helps.

If you mean you'd like to add another handset to the base unit on this phone, I'm afraid you can't. This isn't a multi-handset phone and isn't expandable. If you want the kind of system that has the main base unit and several separate handsets, you'll have to start fresh with a new system. They aren't expensive.

Add more handsets to what model Uniden phone?

I have determined that the phone purchased is not compatible with my current phone system. My mistake for not understanding the fine print on the box!!!!!!

No ,you cannot add any Uniden cordless phone. It has to correspond to the base phone .

After 4 handsets are added to a base it will not allow you to add any more. I fixed them at Sony and I have the procedure to add a handset manually.

The handset is away from the range of the base. Keep the handset on the base for some time and then try again.

the base was destroyed in fire, only the phone left. I bought a similar model cordless phone, but cannot add the former phone to the new cordless phone as without the base of the former phone I can reset the former phone. Can i reset the former phone without the base?
