I have a doro cordless phone with an additional handset the model no is doro arc 3+1 & I have lost instructions when I make a phone call the numbers click for ages and if I have to press nos 1 or 2 etc once through this does not work can you help?

Found out how to change the handset number [1] [2] [3] [4] etc on a Panasonic Cordless handset

Panasonic KXTG6644B

Changing Handset Number:
Deregister two Handsets [#1 & #2] 0r [#3 & #4] etc

On each handset hit -
[MENU] # 1 3 1
[ERASE] [YES]

(This leaves and open space on the base unit)

Re-Register 1st Handset [#1]
[MENU] # 1 3 0
Hold [LOCATION] on Base Unit 5 Seconds
Place the Handset you want #1 in Base Unit

Re-Register 2nd Handset [#2]
[MENU] # 1 3 0
Hold [LOCATION] on Base Unit 5 Seconds
Place the Handset you want #2 in Base Unit

Hi,


This is because the extra handset might have not been registered with the base unit.The headset should be register to use the headset with that base unit.

To register the handset to base unit please follow the instruction:-

On registration the handset is allocated a handset number for use on the new base unit, the handset numbers are 1-5.

1. Press and hold
on the base unit until starts flashing. Registration mode will remain active for approximately 3 minutes.

2.Press and hold both
together until you hear a long beep.

3.Select the base unit you wish to register by pressing the corresponding number button 1-4.
4. When PIN is displayed, enter the units PIN number (0000 for this model).
5. If the registration is successful the handset will return to standby mode in a few seconds.

Thanx

Have you tried it with other batteries? The handset will be dead on the cradle regardless of juice from the wall, if the batteries are missing or no good. This unit eats batter juice quickly if left off the cradle for any length of time.

Problem fixed.......after a call this morning to Doro tech support. It was a simple fix..........simply hold down the # key to lock or unlock the keypad. Unfortunately I had overlooked that section in the manual.

Type in your phone model number. Scroll down to PDF and download in your language.

I have replace my doro batteries with Duracell rechargeables, just make sure you fully charge them before you put them in the handset.  If you find after a time that the charge goes again, charge them again (in the charger you buy when you buy the batteries)! Hope this helps.  PS, do you know how to turn the answering machine on?

Go to http://www.doro.com.au select home phones then Support then Manuals Then you type in your model which should be on the back of the base unit.

Check that you have the larger power adaptor connected to the base unit.
