Battery Safety Precautions

Caution: To reduce the risk of fire or injury to persons by the battery read and follow these instructions:

1. Use only the appropriate type and size Battery Pack specified in this Operating Guide.
2. Do not dispose of the Battery Pack in a fire. The cell may explode.
3. Do not open or mutilate the Battery Pack. Released electrolyte is corrosive and may cause damage to the eyes or skin. It may be toxic if swallowed.

6. Observe proper polarity orientation between the Battery Pack and battery charger,

Privacy — Cordless telephones are radio devices. Communications between the handset and base of your cordless telephone are accomplished by means of radio waves which are broadcast over the open airways. Because of the inherent physical properties of radio waves, your communications can be received by radio receiving devices other than your own telephone unit. Consequently, any communications using your cordless telephone may not be private.

Important Notes

To make use of the Caller Display Features of this phone; you must subscribe to your telephone service provider's Caller Display Service.

This model has been specifically designed for the Australian market.

This XCAI680 can display both the name and number of the calling party.

However at this time, Telstra is not forwarding the name. This feature may be available in the future.

Each telephone device that you connect draws power from the phone line. We refer to the power drawn as the device's Ringer Equivalence Number or REN. The REN is shown on the bottom of your telephone. If you are using more than one phone or other device on the line, add up all the RENs. If the total is more than 3, your phones might not ring. In rural areas, a total REN of three might impair ringing operation.

PLEASE SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS

Quick Start Guide Important Notice.

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.

Warning: Please do not attempt to unplug any appliance during an electrical storm.

Caution: Changes or modifications to this product not expressly approved by Uniden. or operation of this product in any way other than as detailed by this Operating Guide, could void your authority to operate this product.

Range

Your new phone is designed to achieve the maximum possible range by transmitting and receiving according to the highest specifications. 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.

Telephone Line Problems

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.

Radio Interference

Radio interference may occasionally cause buzzing and humming in your cordless Handset, or clicking noises in the Base Unit. 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 the 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, press the channel key to select a channel that provides the clearest communication.

Finally, it should be noted that some cordless telephones operate at frequencies that may cause interference to nearby TVs and VCRs. To minimise 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.

More Than One Cordless Telephone

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.

Selecting a Location

Before choosing a location for your new phone, there are some important guidelines you should consider:

The location should be close to both a phone jack and continuous power outlet.

Note: Make sure that the AC outlet is switched on for continuous power supply

• Keep the Base Unit and Handset away from sources of electrical noise such as motors or fluorescent lighting.
• Be sure there is sufficient space to fully extend the Base Unit antenna.
  • The Base Unit can be placed on a desk or tabletop or wall mounted.
• If you decide to mount your phone on the wall, make sure to change the Handset Retainer so that the tab which holds the Handset faces up. (See page 14 for more information.)
• You should charge your new phone for 15-20 hours before completing the installation or using the Handset.

Telephone Line Outlets

Modular Jack

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.

Connecting the Telephone Cord

Consider these safety guidelines before connecting the telephone cord:

CAUTION:

Never install telephone wiring during a lightning storm.

Never touch uninsulated telephone wires or terminals unless the telephone line has been disconnected.

Use caution when installing or modifying telephone lines.

Applying Power to the Base Unit

All the XCAI680 phones require an AC outlet and the included AC Adapter. To relieve strain on the DC plug when the phone is placed on a desk or table, connect the adapter as shown below.

Technical diagram of a device with labeled ports and wiring, showing connections and a directional arrow.

Direct Wall Mounting

You can mount your phone directly on a wall. Before mounting your phone, consider the following:

Select a location away from electrical cables, pipes, or other items behind the mounting location that could cause a hazard when inserting screws into the wall.

Make sure the wall material is capable of supporting the weight of the Base Unit and Handset.

Use #10 screws with anchoring devices suitable for the wall material where the Base Unit will be placed.

1. Insert two mounting screws 100mm apart. Allow about 5mm between the wall and screw heads for mounting the phone.
