GETTING STARTED
Installing the Phone
Do the following steps:
A. Choose the Best Location
B. Install the Rechargeable Battery Pack into the Handset
C. Connect the Base Unit and Charge the Handset
D. Mount the Base Unit on a Wall
A. Choose the best location
Before choosing a location for your new phone. Here are some important guidelines
you should consider:
•The location should be close to both a phone jack and a continuous power outlet
(one which is not connected to a switch).
•The base and handset 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.
For better reception, place the base as high as possible.
•The base should be placed in an open area for optimum range and reception.
Avoid excessive moisture,
extremely low temperatures,
dust, mechanical vibration,
or shock
Avoid heat sources, such as radiators,
air ducts, and sunlight
Avoid television sets and other
electronic equipment
Avoid noise sources such as a window
by a street with heavy traffic
Avoid microwave ovens
Avoid personal computers
Avoid other cordless telephones
Choose a central location
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.
If you have questions
about what will disable
your alarm equipment,
contact your telephone
company or a qualified
installer.

1) Press down on the handset battery case cover (use the
finger indention for a better grip) and slide the cover
downward to remove.
2) Plug the battery pack connector (red & black wires) into
the small jack inside the battery compartment.
(The connector notches fit into the grooves of the jack only
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.
4) Place the battery case cover back on the handset by sliding
it upwards until it clicks into place.

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 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 7 on page 13 to mount the telephone.
Installing the Beltclip
To attach the beltclip

ber of a call that comes in when you are on the line.
You must subscribe to Caller ID service through your local telephone provider to use
this feature.

Choosing the Dialing Mode
Your phone can communicate with the telephone network in two different ways: tone
dialing and pulse dialing. These days, most phone networks use a method called
tone dialing, so your phone comes programmed for tone dialing.
If your phone company uses pulse dialing, you'll need to change your phone's dial
mode. There's an easy way to tell: try making a call. If your call connects, your
phone's setting is fine. If not, follow the steps below:
Entering Your Area Code
If you can make a call by dialing only 7 digits (instead of 10), you can program your
local area code in your phone. If you get a call from within your area code, you'll
only see the 7-digit phone number. If you get a call from outside your area code,
you'll see all 10 digits.

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 to
electronically locks your phone when the handset is in the base. Also, the Random
CodeTM digital security which automatically selects one of over 262,000 digital
security codes for the handset and 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 base unit. Press and hold the find hs key on the
base.
2) While holding the find hs key, place the handset in the base unit, and leave the
handset on the base for more than 3 seconds. A new random security code is set.

ADDITIONAL INFORMATION[ 56 ] www.uniden.com
Radio Interference
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 the antenna on the unit is fully extended when needed. 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.
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.
Cordless Telephone 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 cordless telephone unit. Consequently, any communications
using your cordless telephone may not be private.
