Installing the Phone  
Do the following steps:  
A. Choose the best location  
B. Install the rechargeable battery packs into both handsets  
C. Connect the main base unit and charging cradle  
If your home has  
specially wired alarm  
equipment connected to  
the telephone line, be  
sure that installing the  
system does not disable  
your alarm equipment.  
A. Choose the best location  
When choosing a location for your new phone, here are some important guidelines  
you should consider:  
Avoid heat sources, such as radiators,  
air ducts, and sunlight  
Avoid noise sources such as a window  
by a street with heavy traffic  
Avoid television sets and other  
electronic equipment  
Avoid microwave ovens  
If you have questions  
about what will disable  
your alarm equipment,  
contact your telephone  
company or a qualified  
installer.  
Avoid excessive moisture,  
extremely low temperatures,  
dust, mechanical vibration,  
or shock  
Choose a central location  
Avoid personal computers  
Avoid other cordless telephones  
The location should be close to both a phone jack and a continuous power outlet  
(one which is not connected to a switch).  
The handsets and the main base should be kept away from sources of electrical  
noise such as motors, microwave ovens, and fluorescent lighting.  
The base can be placed on a desk, tabletop, or mounted on a standard wall plate.

one way.) Match the wire colors to the polarity label in the  
battery compartment, connect the battery, and listen for  
a click to insure connection.  
3) Make sure you have a good connection by slightly pulling on  
the battery wires. If the connection is secure, the battery  
jack will remain in place.

When the battery pack is very low and needs to be charged,  
the phone is programmed to eliminate functions in order to  
save power. If the phone is not in use, Low Battery flashes  
on the LCD and none of the keys will operate.  
If the phone is in use, Low Battery flashes and the handset  
beeps. Complete your conversation as quickly as possible and  
return the handset to either cradle for charging.  
Even when the  
battery pack is not  
being used, it will  
gradually discharge  
over a long period of  
time. For optimum  
performance, be sure  
to return the handset  
to either cradle after  
a telephone call.  
The last number dialed in the redial memory, the Menu display options, the names and  
the numbers stored in the memory locations or CID list are retained for up to 30 minutes  
while you replace the battery pack.  
Cleaning the battery charging contacts  
Talk Mode -  
To maintain a good charge, it is important to clean the  
charging contacts on the handsets, main base unit and  
charging cradle once a month. Using water only, dampen a  
cloth to clean the charging contacts. Then make sure to  
go back over the charging contacts with a dry cloth before  
returning the handsets to the main base unit or charging  
cradle to charge.  
The handset is off  
either cradle and  
talk/flash has been  
pressed, enabling a  
dial tone.  
Standby Mode -  
The handset may be  
sitting in or off either  
charging cradle but is  
NOT in use. The  
talk/flash key has  
not been pressed and  
there is no dial tone.

Direct wall mounting  
If you don't have a standard wall plate, you can mount your phone directly to the  
wall. Before doing this, consider the following:  
Avoid electrical cables, pipes, or other items behind the mounting location that  
could cause a hazard when inserting screws into the wall.  
Try to mount your phone within 5 feet of a working phone jack to avoid excessive  
lengths.  
Make sure the wall material is capable of supporting the weight of the base  
and handset.  
Use #10 screws (minimum length of 1-3/8 inches) with anchoring devices suitable  
for the wall material where the main base unit will be placed.  
1) Insert two mounting screws into the wall (with their  
appropriate anchoring device), 3-15/16 inches apart.  
Allow about 1/8 of an inch between the wall and screw heads  
for mounting the phone.  
2) Refer to steps 1 through 6 on page 12 to mount the telephone.

Changing the Digital Security Code  
To protect you against misbilled calls which might result from your phone being  
activated by other equipment, the cordless phone provides AutoSecureTM  
(which electronically locks your phone when each handset is in the main base or  
charging cradle) and Random CodeTM digital security (which automatically selects one  
of over 262,000 digital security codes for each handset and main base).  
If the handset battery pack is completely discharged or the battery pack is removed,  
the digital security code will be lost. If this happens, a new security code is set  
automatically the next time the battery pack is charged.  
In the rare situation that you suspect another cordless telephone is using the same  
security code, you can change the code.  
1) Remove the handset from the main base unit or charging cradle. Press and hold  
find handset on the main base.  
2) While holding find handset, place the handset in the main base unit, and leave  
the handset in the main base for more than 3 seconds.  
3) Remove the handset from the main base. Then place the second handset in the  
main base unit and wait for more than 3 seconds. No need to holding  
find handset this time.  
4) Press talk/flash on one handset. Once you make sure talk appears on the  
display, press end. Then, try with the second handset. If each handset displays  
talk, a new security code is set. Otherwise, return to step 1 and try again.

SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS!  
Uniden voluntarily participates in an RBRC®  
industry program to collect and recycle nickel-cadmium batteries at  
the end of their useful life, when taken out of service within the  
United States.  
Important Electrical Considerations  
Unplug all electrical appliances when you know an electrical storm is  
approaching. Lightning can pass through your household wiring and  
damage any device connected to it. This phone is no exception.  
The RBRC® program provides a convenient alternative to placing  
used nickel-cadmium batteries into the trash or municipal waste  
stream, which is illegal in some areas.  
The FCC Wants You To Know  
Changes or modifications to this product not expressly approved by  
Uniden, or operation of this product in any way other than as detailed  
by the owners manual, could void your authority to operate this  
product. Your telephone compiles with Part 68 of FCC Rules. You must,  
upon request, provide the FCC registration number and the REN to your  
telephone company. Both numbers are on the main base unit.  
Through the RBRC® program, Uniden makes it easy for you to drop  
off the used battery at local retailers of replacement nickel-cadmium  
batteries. You may also contact your local recycling center for  
information on where to return the used battery. Please call 1-800-  
8-BATTERY for information on Ni-Cd battery recycling in your area.  
Uniden's involvement in this program is part of its commitment to  
protecting our environment and conserving natural resources.

the inherent physical properties of radio waves, your communications  
can be received by radio receiving devices other than your own cordless  
telephone unit. Consequently, any communications using your cordless  
telephone may not be private.  
Range  
One Year Limited Warranty  
Your new phone is designed to achieve the maximum possible range by  
transmitting and receiving according to the highest specifications set  
forth by the FCC. We have rated this phone to operate at a maximum  
distance with the qualification that the range depends upon the  
environment in which the telephone is used. Many factors limit range,  
and it would be impossible to include all the variables in our rating.  
The Maximum Range rating of this phone is meant to be used as a  
means of comparison against other range claims.  
Important: Evidence of original purchase is required for warranty service.  
WARRANTOR: UNIDEN AMERICA CORPORATION (Uniden)  
ELEMENTS OF WARRANTY: Uniden warrants, for one year, to the original  
retail owner, this Uniden Product to be free from defects in materials  
and craftsmanship with only the limitations or exclusions set out below.  
Installation Considerations  
Selecting a Location  
WARRANTY DURATION: This warranty to the original user shall terminate  
and be of no further effect 12 months after the date of original retail  
sale. The warranty is invalid if the Product is (A) damaged or not  
maintained as reasonable or necessary, (B) modified, altered, or used as  
part of any conversion kits, subassemblies, or any configurations not  
sold by Uniden, (C) improperly installed, (D) serviced or repaired by  
someone other than an authorized Uniden service center for a defect or  
malfunction covered by this warranty, (E) used in any conjunction with  
equipment or parts or as part of any system not manufactured by  
Uniden, or (F) installed or programmed by anyone other than as  
detailed by the owners manual for this product.  
Before choosing a location for your new phone, there are some  
important guidelines you should consider:  
Telephone Line Problems  
The location should be close to both a phone jack and continuous  
power outlet. (A continuous power outlet is an AC outlet which does  
not have a switch to interrupt its power.)  
Keep the base and handset away from sources of electrical noise  
such as motors or fluorescent lighting.  
The FCC has granted the telephone company the right to disconnect  
service in the event that your phone causes problems on the telephone  
line. Also, the telephone company may make changes in facilities and  
services which may affect the operation of your unit. However, your  
telephone company must give adequate notice in writing prior to such  
actions to allow you time for making necessary arrangements to  
continue uninterrupted service.  
Be sure there is sufficient space to fully extend the base antenna.  
The base can be placed on a desk or tabletop or mounted on a  
standard telephone wall plate.  
You should charge your new phone for 15-20 hours before  
completing the installation or using the handset.  
If you are having trouble with your telephone service, you must first  
disconnect your phone to determine if it is the cause of your problem.  
If you determine that it is the cause, you must leave it disconnected  
until the trouble has been corrected.  
STATEMENT OF REMEDY: In the event that the product does not conform  
to this warranty at any time while this warranty is in effect, warrantor  
will either, at its option, repair or replace the defective unit and return  
it to you without charge for parts, service, or any other cost (except  
shipping and handling) incurred by warrantor or its representatives in  
connection with the performance of this warranty. Warrantor, at its  
option, may replace the unit with a new or refurbished unit. THE  
LIMITED WARRANTY SET FORTH ABOVE IS THE SOLE AND ENTIRE  
WARRANTY PERTAINING TO THE PRODUCT AND IS IN LIEU OF AND  
EXCLUDES ALL OTHER WARRANTIES OF ANY NATURE WHATSOEVER,  
WHETHER EXPRESS, IMPLIED OR ARISING BY OPERATION OF LAW,  
INCLUDING, BUT NOT LIMITED TO ANY IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF  
MERCHANTABILITY OR FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE. THIS  
WARRANTY DOES NOT COVER OR PROVIDE FOR THE REIMBURSEMENT OR  
PAYMENT OF INCIDENTAL OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES. Some states do  
not allow this exclusion or limitation of incidental or consequential  
damages so the above limitation or exclusion may not apply to you.  
Telephone Line Outlets  
There are two types of phone outlets:  
Radio Interference  
Modular Jack  
Radio interference may occasionally cause buzzing and humming in your  
cordless handset, or clicking noises in the base. This interference is  
caused by external sources such as TV, refrigerator, vacuum cleaner,  
fluorescent lighting, or electrical storm. Your unit is NOT DEFECTIVE.  
If these noises continue and are too distracting, please check around  
your home to see what appliances may be causing the problem.  
In addition, we recommend that the base not be plugged into a circuit  
that also powers a major appliance because of the potential for  
interference. Be certain that antenna on the unit is fully extended.  
In the unlikely event that you consistently hear other voices or  
distracting transmissions on your phone, you may be receiving radio  
signals from another cordless telephone or other source of interference.  
If you cannot eliminate this type of interference, you need to change to  
a different channel.  
Most phone equipment available now uses modular jacks. Phone cords  
are fitted with a molded plastic connector which plugs into this type  
of jack. If you do not have modular phone jacks, contact your local  
telephone company for information about their installation.  
Hardwired Jack  
Some equipment is wired directly to a phone jack, and these types of  
installations require a modular jack converter. This type of installation  
is not difficult; however, you should contact your Uniden telephone  
dealer or a telephone supply store for advice about the proper adapter  
or converter for your particular situation.  
Connecting the Telephone Cords  
Consider these safety guidelines before connecting the telephone cords:  
Caution!  
LEGAL REMEDIES: This warranty gives you specific legal rights, and you  
may also have other rights which vary from state to state. This warranty  
is void outside the United States of America and Canada.  
Finally, it should be noted that some cordless telephones operate at  
frequencies that may cause interference to nearby TVs and VCRs.  
To minimize or prevent such interference, the base of the cordless  
telephone should not be placed near or on top of a TV or VCR.  
If interference is experienced, moving the cordless telephone farther  
away from the TV or VCR will often reduce or eliminate the interference.  
Never install telephone wiring during a lightning storm.  
Never touch uninsulated telephone wires or terminals unless the  
telephone line has been disconnected.  
PROCEDURE FOR OBTAINING PERFORMANCE OF WARRANTY: If, after  
following the instructions in the owners manual you are certain that  
the Product is defective, pack the Product carefully (preferably in its  
original packaging). The Product should include all parts and accessories  
originally packaged with the Product. Include evidence of original  
purchase and a note describing the defect that has caused you to return  
it. The Product should be shipped freight prepaid, by traceable means,  
to warrantor at:  
Use caution when installing or modifying telephone lines.  
Applying Power to the Base  
More Than One Cordless Telephone  
This phone requires an AC outlet, without a switch to interrupt power,  
and the included AC adapter. To relieve strain on the DC plug when the  
phone is placed on a desk or table, wrap the power cord around the  
strain relief notch on the back of the base.  
If you want to use more than one cordless telephone in your home,  
they must operate on different channels. Press the channel key to select  
a channel that provides the clearest communication.
