QUICK START GUIDE

The Quick Start Guide is a very condensed version of

the Owner’s Manual. It is designed to allow you to get

your phone installed and operating as quickly as

possible - however it does not attempt to explain any

of the advanced features of the DSS2455 and

DSS2465 series.

1) Install the desk top/wall mount bracket into the

notches on the base top for desk top mounting.

For wall mounting, see “Mounting the Base Unit on

a Wall” on page 6.

2) Connect the AC adapter to the AC ADAPTER

jack and to a standard AC wall outlet.

3) Connect the telephone

line cord to the TEL LINE

jack and to a telephone

socket on the wall.

Make sure the AC

Adapter/s remains

switched ON at all

times. Use only

the Uniden AC

Adapter/s supplied

with this unit.

cover down until it comes off.

2) Install the batteries supplied with your phone, observing

correct + - polarity.

•Use only “AA”

rechargeable Ni-MH

batteries. Do Not use

Alkaline, Lithium, or

non-rechargeable

batteries. Using

incorrect batteries

could damage or limit

the performance of

this unit.

•Recharge your phone

on a regular basis by

returning the handset

to the charger after

each phone call.

[ iii ]

4) Set the base on a desk or tabletop.

5) Rise the antenna to a vertical position.

Connecting the charger - DSS2465 only

1) Connect the AC adapter into the charging

cradle and to a AC wall outlet.

2) Set the charger on a desk or tabletop, and

place the handset in the charger with the

keypad facing forward (see “Installing the

UP308BH (DSS2465) ENG OM 8/6/03 10:32 AM Page iii

[ iv ]

3) Securely close the battery compartment cover by sliding it up

until it snaps into place.

Charging the handset

1) Place the handset in the charging cradle with the keypad

facing up.

The DSS2455 and DSS2465 series will only work with “AA” Ni-MH

rechargeable batteries. If you use any other type of batteries,

the display will show “Use rechargeable battery only”.

• After installing the batteries in the handset, charge your handset at least 17-20 hours.

2) Make sure the charge LED illuminates. If the LED does not illuminate, check to see that

the AC adapter is plugged in and switch on. Clean the handset and base charge contacts

with a pencil eraser.

During a power cut

or if the AC Adapter

is switched off,

this telephone

will not operate.
