About the digital security code

This cordless telephone uses a digital security code to prevent unauthorized access to your base unit. This security code prevents other cordless handsets from making calls through your base unit. A random security code will be assigned automatically between your base unit and handset when you charge the battery pack for the first time.

Checking the package contents

Make sure you have received the following items in the package. If any of these items are missing or damaged, contact the Uniden Parts Department (see below).

• Choose the best location
• Connect the base unit
• Choose the dialing mode

Choose the best location

Before choosing a location for your new phone, read the INSTALLATION CONSIDERATIONS included in the PRECAUTIONS AND IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS brochure. Here are some important guidelines you should consider:

Avoid heat sources, such as radiators, air ducts, and sunlight Avoid television sets and other electronic equipment Choose a central location Avoid noise sources such as a window by a street with heavy traffic Avoid microwave ovens Avoid excessive moisture, extremely low temperatures, dust, mechanical vibration, or shock Avoid personal computers Avoid other cordless telephones

• You should charge your handset for 15-20 hours before using the phone.
• The location should be close to both a phone jack and continuous power outlet which is not switchable.
• Keep the base and handset away from sources of electrical noise such as motors and fluorescent lighting.
• Be sure there is sufficient space to raise the base antenna fully vertical.
• The base can be placed on a desk, tabletop or mounted on a standard wall plate.

NOTE

Place the power cord so it does not create a trip hazard, or where it could become chafed and create a fire or electrical hazard.

Connect the base unit

If you want to install the base unit on the wall, see page 8.

1 Connect the telephone line cord to the TEL LINE jack and to a telephone outlet.

2 Connect the AC adapter to the DC IN 9V jack and to a standard 120V AC wall outlet.

3 Set the base unit on a desk or tabletop and place the handset on the base unit. Then raise the antenna to a vertical position.

Line drawing of a portable electronic device with a radio emitting signal waves (no text or symbols)

Use only the supplied AD-420 AC adapter. Do not use any other AC adapter.

Connect the AC adapter to a continuous power supply.

Place the base unit close to the AC outlet so that you can unplug the AC adapter easily.

If your telephone outlet isn't modular, contact your telephone company for assistance.

Modular

NOTE

If you have wall mounted the base, you must remove the beltclip to charge the handset facing forward.

Handset retainer

8 On the base unit, pull the handset retainer out of the slot. Rotate it clockwise 180 degrees.

9 Flip the retainer from front to back. Slide it back into the slot so that the lip of the retainer is up and the ▼ symbol is pointed down. The retainer holds the handset in place.

Direct wall plate 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 10 - 15 feet of a working phone jack to avoid excessive cord 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 for the wall material where the base unit will be placed.

TOP 3/16 in. 3-15/16 in.

1 Insert two mounting screws into the wall, (with their appropriate anchoring device), 3-15/16 inches apart. Allow about 3/16 of an inch between the wall and screwheads for mounting the phone.

2 Refer to steps 1 through 9 on page 8 and 9 to mount the telephone.

Installing the handset battery pack

Charge the battery pack for 15-20 hours before you start using your phone.

Black Red status LED

1 Press in on the battery cover release and slide the cover down until it comes off.

2 Connect the battery pack connector with the correct polarity (black and red wires), then insert the battery pack into the battery compartment.

4 Place the handset on the base.

5 Make sure that the "status" LED lights. If the LED doesn't light, check to see that the AC adapter is plugged in and that the handset makes good contact with the base charging contacts.

Use only Uniden Battery (BT-905) supplied with your phone.

NOTE

Even when the battery pack is not being used, it will gradually discharge over a long period. For optimum performance, be sure to return the handset to the base unit after a telephone call for charging the battery.

Battery use time (per charge)

From fully charged

• Six hours continuous use
• Ten days when the handset is in the standby mode

When the battery charge becomes low

When the voltage of battery pack in the handset is very low and needs to be charged, the phone is programmed to eliminate functions in order to save power. If the battery charge becomes low, talk/batt LED blinks. If the phone is in use, the handset beeps.

Complete your conversation as quickly as possible and return the handset to the base unit for charging.

Cleaning the charging contacts

To maintain a good charge, it is important to clean the charging contacts on the handset and base unit with a dry cloth about once a month.

Do not use any liquids or solvents.

Changing the digital security code

The digital security code is an identification code used to connect the handset and the base unit. Normally, setting the code is not necessary.
