Introducing Bluetooth
You can make and receive calls using the home and
cell lines. The home line is your conventional telephone
land line ( /HOME/FLASH). The cell line is the
telephone line associated with your cell phone service
( /CELL).
You can:
• Pair up to four Bluetooth enabled cell phones with
the telephone base. Up to two of them can make
and receive cell calls. However, only one cell phone
can be on a call at a time.
• Use the home and cell lines at the same time.
• Conference the home and cell lines.
Important Bluetooth information
• Minutes are deducted from your cellular plan for the
duration of all cell calls using the DS6311.
• Charge your cell phone while it is connected to
the telephone base. Your cell phone’s battery
discharges faster while it is connected to the
telephone base via Bluetooth wireless technology.
• If you have voicemail service on your cell phone,
unanswered calls to your cell line are answered by
your cell phone’s voicemail.
• Bluetooth wireless technology operates within a
short range (about 1 to 30 feet) from the telephone
base. Keep connected cell phones and headset
within this range.
• If you are on a call using a cordless system handset
on the cell line, you cannot pick up the paired cell
phone and join the call. However, you can join the
call using another DS6311 handset.
• You cannot use the cell line and a Bluetooth
headset at the same time.
• If your cell phone has poor reception in your
home, the DS6311 cannot improve the reception.
However, if you have a location in your house with
better reception, you can leave your cell phone in
that location while you use the DS6311 cell line. In
order for this to work, the telephone base must be
within 30 feet of the cell phone.
If you have difficulty using your cell line, refer to
the Troubleshooting section of the user’s manual.
