Do the following steps:
A. Choose the best location
B. Install the battery pack
C. Connect the base unit
A. Choose the best location
Before choosing a location for your new phone, read the INSTALLATION
CONSIDERATIONS included in the PRECAUTIONS AND IMPORTANT SAFETY
INSTRUCTIONS. 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
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
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.
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
which is not switchable.
• Keep the base and handset away from sources of electrical noise such as motors,
microwave ovens, and fluorescent lighting.
• Be sure there is sufficient space to raise the base antenna to a vertical position.
• The base can be placed on a desk, tabletop, or mounted on a standard wall plate.

From fully charged (15-20 hours charge time)
• Seven hours continuous use.
• Fourteen days when the handset is in the standby mode.
Low battery alert
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” appears 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 the base unit for charging.
The last number dialed in the redial memory and the numbers
stored in the memory locations are retained for up to 30 minutes
while you replace the battery pack.
Cleaning the battery charging contacts
Throughout this manual,
terms such as Standby
and Talk Mode are used.
Below is the terminology
explanation.
• Standby Mode - The
handset is not in use,
off the base, and
talk/flash has not
been pressed. A dial
tone is not present.
• Talk Mode - The
handset is off the base
and talk/flash has
been pressed enabling
a dial tone.
To maintain a good charge, it is important to clean the
charging terminals on both the handset and base unit
once a month. Use a dry cloth or pencil eraser to clean.
If the contacts became very dirty, use water only,
dampen a cloth to clean the charging terminals. Then
make sure to go back over the charging terminals with
a dry cloth before returning the handset to the base to
charge.

C. Connect the base unit
1) Connect the AC adapter to the DC IN 9V jack and a
standard 120V AC wall outlet.
• Place the power cord
so that it does not
create a trip hazard or
where it could become
chafed and create a
fire or electrical
hazard.
• Use only the supplied
AD-314 AC adapter.
Do not use any other
AC adapter.
2) Set the base on a desk or tabletop, and place the
handset on the base unit as shown. (For wall
mounting, see "Mounting the Base Unit on a Wall",
on page 11.)
3) Raise the antenna to a vertical position.
4) Make sure the charge/in use LED illuminates. If
the LED does not illuminate, check to see that the
AC adapter is plugged in and the handset makes
good contact with the base charging contacts.
• 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.
The handset can be
placed face up or
face down in the base
for charging.
[ 10 ]
• After installing the battery pack in the handset, charge your handset at least
15-20 hours before plugging into the phone line. Once the handset battery pack

6) Raise the antenna to a vertical position.
7) Align the mounting slots on the base with the mounting posts on the wall. Then
push in and down until the phone is firmly seated.
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
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 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.

Tone Dialing Switch-over
• The tone feature only
applies when the dial
mode is set to pulse.
• This special number
can be stored in a
memory location. This
is referred to as Chain
Dialing (See page 25.)
Some telephone companies use equipment that requires pulse
dialing (sometimes referred to as rotary dialing). If you need to
enter tone dialing digits, you can switch-over to tone dialing
during the call. For example, entering your bank account number
after you have called your bank.
Initially make your call with the pulse dialing mode. Once your
call connects, press
/tone/ . Enter the desired number.
These digits will be sent as tone dialing. Once the call ends, the
tone mode is canceled and pulse dialing mode resumes.
Traveling Out-of-Range
During a call, as you begin to move your handset too far from your base unit,
noise increases. If you pass the range limits of the base unit, your call will terminate
within 1 minute.

SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS!
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.
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 owner’s manual, could void your authority to operate this
product. The equipment cannot be used on public coin phone service
provided by the telephone company. Connection to party line service is
subject to state tariffs. (Contact the state public utility commission,
public service commission or corporation commission for information.)
Range
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.
Telephone Line Problems
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.
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.

Telephone Line Outlets
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.
There are two types of phone outlets:
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.
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.
Installation Considerations
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.
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!
• 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
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 bottom of the base.
NOTE:
Place the power cord so that it does not create a trip
hazard, or where it could become chafed and create a fire
or other electrical hazards.
Adapter Safety Features
Do not use an outlet controlled by a wall switch.
Use only the Uniden AC Adapter supplied with this phone.
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. (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.
• 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.
