I repeated the above procedure with my two remaining handsets and now I have a 6 handset cordless system for my home.
It's important to note that if you have a working base station you should use the standard instructions for deregistering the handsets. Each handset gets allocated a handset number by the base station, if you deregister using the special code detailed in this post then the reserved handset number on the base station is consumed and cannot be reclaimed; thus reducing the number of handsets the base station can support by 1. The special code is only for use when you have a handset that is orphaned from a lost or non-working base station. www.apparelstore38.com
Testimonial: "The handset I am trying to deregister is orphaned. I have tried using the code but nothing happens."

From the manual:
1) Before registering the extra handset, the battery pack MUST be charged for 15-20
hours.
2) With the main base in standby mode, press the MENU soft key on the base.
3) Press /vol/∧ or /vol/∨ on the base to select H S R e g i s t r a t i o n, and then
press the OK soft key.
4) On the handset, press and hold # for two seconds. To cancel registration, press
the CANCEL soft key on the base.
5) While the handset is registering, H a n d s e t R e g i s t e r i n g will appear in the Handset
LCD. When R e g i s t r a t i o n C o m p l e t e is displayed, the handset has been registered
to the base. If R e g i s t r a t i o n F a i l e d appears, please try these steps again.

Was looking for this for awhile as well, if you held onto them like I did the wait paid off, they must have put this up since I last looked.

The "END" and "#" key combination can be used for several purposes:
1) If wanting to use an ALREADY REGISTERED HANDSET on an alternate base, and if if the INITIAL BASE isn't available to deregister the handset:
1a) Press "END" + "#" until it for 5+ seconds (wait for it to beep)
1b) Choose the "Base Unavailable" option
1c) That'll deregister the CURRENT HANDSET so that it can be re-registered on ANY base.
2) If a BASE has a handset registered to it which you no longer want registered but the registered handset is missing or broken:
2a) Grab another WORKING handset which is properly REGISTERED to the BASE in question
2b) Press and hold the "END" + "#" key for 5+ seconds (wait for it to beep)
2c) Choose the "Deregister HS" menu option
2d) Pick the REGISTERED HANDSET # to de-register. (Every other registered handset EXCEPT THE ONE YOU'RE ON will appear in the list!)
SOURCE: I need to deregister missing handset #1
To de-register HANDSET #1:
1) Grab any working handset which is registered to your base (so HANDSET #2 or #3 in your case)
2) Press and hold the "END" + "#" key for 5+ seconds (wait for it to beep)
3) Choose the "Deregister HS" menu option
4) Pick HANDSET #1 as the handset ot de-register (since that's the "phantom" registered handset)
5) Once de-registered, you can de-register handsets #2 and #3 directly from each handset's "normal" menu interface (i.e. press "Menu", choose "Deregistration")
6) Thereafter, if you re-register your handset, they should start at HANDSET #1, then #2, and so on.
