Changing from Tone to Pulse Dialing  
Phones can communicate with the telephone network in two different  
ways: tone (DTMF) or pulse dialing. If you know your phone company uses  
pulse dialing or you can't make your test call, follow these steps:  
ꢀ) With the phone in standby, press seLeCT/meNu  
.
ꢁ) Use up or DOWN to highlight Global Setup, then press seLeCT/meNu  
.
ꢂ) Use up or DOWN to highlight Dial mode, then press seLeCT/meNu  
.
ꢃ) Highlight Pulse, then press seLeCT/meNu. The phone sounds a  
confirmation tone. Try making another test call.  
If you use pulse dialing and you need to send DTMF tones during a call (if  
you're using an automated response system, for example), press to  
temporarily switch to tone dialing. When the call ends, the phone  
automatically returns to pulse dialing mode.  
Set Up the Accessory Handset(s)  
If your phone came packaged with accessory handsets, follow the steps  
below to get your cordless handsets ready for use.  
Install the battery  
ꢀ) Unpack all handsets, battery packs,  
and battery covers. If any  
handset has the battery  
cover already attached,  
press in on the notch and  
slide the cover down and  
off.

the battery pack with the label  
inside the handset.  
ꢂ) Push the battery pack connector  
in until it clicks into place. Tug  
gently on the wires to make sure  
the battery pack is securely  
connected.

ꢃ) Place the cover over the battery  
compartment and slide it up into place.  
Connect the charger  
ꢀ) Connect a charger AC adapter to each  
charger's AC IN 8V jack and set the  
plug into the notch as shown. (These  
adapters might already be connected.)  
ꢁ) Plug the other end of the adapter into  
a standard ꢀꢁ0V AC power outlet.  
ꢂ) Place each handset in a charger with the display facing forward. The  
CHArGE light should turn on.  
If...  
Try...  
- reseating the handset.  
the CHArGE  
light doesn't  
turn on  
- checking the AC adapter connection.  
- seeing if the outlet is controlled by a wall  
switch.

Entering Text on Your Phone  
When you want to enter text into your phone (for example, a name in the  
phonebook), use the twelve-key dial pad to enter the letters printed on the  
number keys. Here's how it works:  
The phone enters the letters in the order they appear on the key. For  
example, if you press the number key once, the phone enters the  
letter . Press twice for , and three times for  
If you press the key again after the last letter, the phone starts the same  
letter sequence with small letters. If you press four times in a row, the  
phone enters (small letter). Press five times for , and six times for  
If you see the icon [Aa] in the display, the phone enters capital letters  
first (A B C), then small letters (a b c), then the number on the key (  
2

).  
The icon [aA] means the phone starts at the small letters, so it enters  
small letters first, then the number on the key, then capital letters.  
The phone automatically uses a capital letter for the first letter and any  
letter directly after a space; all other times, it uses small letters.  
If two letters in a row use the same number key, enter the first letter,  
then use to move the cursor to the next position to

Using Multi-station Features  
The expandable base works together with the accessory handsets to give  
you some useful multi-station features. (A station can be any cordless  
handset or the base.) You must have at least one accessory handset to  
use the features in this section.  
Expanding Your Phone  
Your base supports a total of six EZXꢁ90 accessory handsets, including  
any that were supplied with your phone.  
Your phone may be compatible with other Uniden accessory handsets.  
Please visit our website for a list of compatible handsets for your base.  
Accessory handsets must be registered to the base before you can  
use them. Handsets that have not been registered display a Handset  
not registered message. See page ꢁ9 for instructions on registering  
handsets to this base, or see the manual for the accessory handset.  
Any accessory handsets that came packaged with the base are already  
registered to that base for you.  
If a handset was previously registered to a base, you have to reset it so  
you can register it to a new base (see page ꢁ9 for EZXꢁ90 handsets).  
Using Conference Calling  
Outside call  
When an outside call comes in, the base  
and two cordless handsets can join in a  
conference call with the outside caller. To  
join the call, just pick up the corded  
handset from the base or press TaLk on a  
cordless handset. To leave the  
Handset #2  
conference call, hang up normally; the  
other station remains connected to the  
call. (You can also use the speakerphone  
Base  
speakerphone  
or corded handset  
Handset #1  
for a conference call, just like you can with a normal call.)  
Using Privacy Mode  
You can prevent other stations from joining a call. Start your call as usual,  
then press seLeCT/meNu: the display shows Call Privacy. Press seLeCT/  
meNu again to turn privacy mode on (you'll see a in the display). When  
you hang up this call, privacy mode turns off automatically.  
As long you have privacy mode on, no other stations can interrupt your  
call. If you want to let another station join the call, turn privacy mode off.  
To turn it off, just repeat the process above (press seLeCT/meNu twice).

Using Special Features  
Using Your Phone during a Power Failure  
Because your phone combines a corded handset with a cordless phone,  
it can perform several of its functions during a power failure. The following  
features will operate during a power failure (all other features are disabled):  
Making and receiving calls with the base corded handset  
Corded handset volume control  
Call Waiting on a base corded handset call  
Entering pauses when dialing from the base corded handset  
While the power is out, the base uses a special ringer; you cannot  
adjust the volume of this ringer.  
Using do Not disturb  
The Do Not Disturb or DND feature turns off the audio ringers of the  
base & all handsets at the same time. It doesn't affect the visual ringers.  
With the phone in standby, press and hold DO NOT DIsTurb on the base.  
The phone automatically turns on the answering system and shows Do  
Not Disturb in the display on all stations.  
To cancel, press DO NOT DIsTurb  
.
If you turn the answering system off while DND is on, the phone  
turns off DND along with the answering system.  
Adjusting the Base Visual ringer  
The VIsuaL rINGer switch is at the top of the  
base (above the cradle); use this switch to  
change the brightness of the base visual  
ringer. (It doesn't affect the audio ringers.)  
Slide the switch so that its center (marked  
with the arrow in the picture) lines up with  
the brightness you want to use: HIGH  
,
LoW  
,
or oFF

Using the Audio Boost  
You can increase the earpiece volume for normal calls and intercom calls.  
During a call, press bOOsT to increase the volume of the audio. While  
audio boost is on, appears in the display. Press bOOsT again to turn off.

Using Text-To-Speech  
With the Text To Speech (TTS) feature, your phone can announce phone  
numbers or names in several different situations.  
When you... (from standby) The phone announces...  
Receive a call  
The caller's name (if sent by a Caller ID service)  
The phone number you dialed  
Dial a number  
Open the phonebook  
The name of the entry you are looking at  
Things to know about TTS:  
You have to turn on TTS separately for each station. Open the menu  
and select Handset Setup or Base Setup. Then, select TTS On/off  
and select On or Off for each station.  
,
To make sure it doesn't interrupt a call or an intercom page, the phone  
only uses TTS when it starts out in standby. For example, if you open  
the phonebook during a call, the phone won't announce the names in  
your phonebook.  
It takes at least ꢁ rings for the phone to receive Caller ID information  
and announce it. If the phone is answered before the end of the second  
ring, the phone won't have time to announce the name of the caller.  
To change the volume used for Caller ID announcements, change the  
ringer volume. To change the volume for all other TTS features, change  
the speaker volume.  
The TTS feature only uses English to announce the name and numbers,  
regardless of what language is use for the display or the answering  
system prompts.  
Using Voice Message Notification  
This feature supports Frequency-shift keying (Fsk) message  
notification. Contact your voice mail provider for more details.  
If you subscribe to a voice mail service, your phone can notify you when  
you have a new message waiting. When you have new messages, the  
voice message icon  
(
) appears in the display.  
Resetting the voice message indicator  
If the voice message icon won't go away after you check your messages,  
you can reset it. From the base, open the menu, and select Global Setup  
Select VMWI Reset, and select Yes to reset the indicator.

Noise or Static on The Line  
The most common cause of noise or  
static on a cordless phone is  
interference. Here are some  
common household sources of  
interference:  
do you have a T-Coil hearing aid?  
If you have a hearing aid equipped  
with a telecoil (T-coil) feature, the  
interaction between the hearing  
aid and digital cordless phones can  
cause noise in the handset. If you  
have a T-coil hearing aid and you  
have problems with noise on the  
line, try turning on T-coil mode.

on 1 handset or in 1 location:  
on all handsets or in all locations:  
- Check nearby for one of the common  
interference sources.  
- Check near the base for the  
source of interference.

handset and the base.  
- If the base has an adjustable  
antenna, try raising the antenna  
so it stands straight up.  
- If you have any service that uses  
the phone line, you might need  
a filter (see below).  
- Try moving closer to the base. There is  
always more noise at the edges of the  
base's range. If the handset displays an  
Out of Range message, you need to  
move closer to the base.  
Installing a telephone line filter or DSL filter  
Sometimes, broadband Internet services  
that use the telephone line can interfere  
with phones. One of these services−DSL−  
often causes static on telephones. A DSL  
filter or telephone line filter usually solves  
this problem. The technician who installed

your DSL service might have left some filters for you; if not, call your DSL  
provider or look in any electronics store.  
Plug the DSL filter into the telephone wall jack and then plug your phone’s  
base into the filter. Make a test call to make sure the noise is gone.  
resetting and registering Handsets  
If you are having trouble with a cordless handset or if you want to replace  
one, you need to clear the registration information from the base and the  
handset:  
do you have the base the handset is registered to?  
Yes  
No

(#) until the System Reset menu  
appears (about 5 seconds).  
PoUNd (#) until the System Reset  
menu appears (about 5 seconds).  
2. Select Deregister HS. The display  
lists all registered handsets.  
2. Select Base Unavailable.  
3. When the phone asks you to  
confirm, select Yes. The handset  
deletes its own link without  
contacting the base.  
3. Select the handset you want to reset.  
4. When the phone asks you to confirm,  
select Yes. The handset clears its  
information from the base and deletes  
it own link to the base.  
When you reset a handset (or if you purchase a new one), that handset  
displays a Handset Not Registered message. If you see this message on  
a handset, you need to register it to a base before you can use it.  
Registering a handset  
ꢀ) On the base, open the menu and select Register Handset. The  
display should say Handset Registering  
.
ꢁ) On the handset you want to register, press and hold pOuND (#) until the  
handset display says Handset Registering (about ꢁ seconds).  
ꢂ) In about ꢂ0 seconds, the handset display should say Registration  
Complete. Press TaLk and make sure you get a dial tone.  
If...  
Try...  
- you don't hear a dial tone  
- the display says Registration Failed  
Making sure the handset is fully  
charged, then start over at step 1.  
To register a handset to a different base, see the section "expanding  
Your phone" in the user's guide for the other base.

Handling Liquid damage  
Moisture and liquid can damage your cordless phone.  
If the handset or base is exposed to moisture or liquid, but only the  
exterior plastic housing is affected, wipe off the liquid, and use as  
normal.  
If moisture or liquid has entered the plastic housing (i.e. liquid can  
be heard in the phone or liquid has entered the handset battery  
compartment or vent openings on the base), follow the steps below:  
Handset  
Base  
1. Remove the battery cover and leave it off for  
ventilation.  
2. Disconnect the battery pack. Leave the battery  
cover off and the battery pack disconnected for  
at least 3 days.  
3. Once the handset is completely dry, reconnect  
the battery pack and the battery cover.  
4. Recharge the battery pack for 15-20 hours  
before using.  
1. Disconnect the AC  
adapter, cutting off  
electrical power.  
2. Disconnect the  
telephone cord from the

Battery Information  
Fully charged, the battery should provide about ꢀ0 hours of talk time and about ꢆ days of standby  
time. For best results, return the handset to the cradle after each call to keep it fully charged.  
Keep an eye on the battery status icon. When the battery gets too low, the handset shows a low  
battery alert. If you hear a strange beep during a call, check the display: if you see the low battery  
alert, finish your conversation as quickly as possible and return the handset to the cradle. If the  
handset is in standby, none of the keys will operate.  
With normal use, the battery should last about one year. Replace the battery when the talk time  
becomes short even when the battery is charged. To buy a replacement battery, call the Parts  
Department listed on the front cover.
