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.  
2
For example, if you press the number key once, the phone  
2
enters the letter  
A
. Press twice for  
B
, and three times for  
C.  
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  
2
2
in a row, the phone enters  
and six times for  
a
(small letter). Press five times for  
b,  
c
.
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 ( ). The icon [aA] means the phone starts at the small  
2
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 right 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 enter the second letter.

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 DCX210 accessory handsets,  
including any that were supplied with your phone.  
Your base might be compatible with other Uniden accessory  
handsets: please visit our website for a list of compatible handsets.  
Accessory handsets must be registered to the base before you  
can use them. Handsets that aren't registered display a Handset  
not registered message. For instructions on registering handsets to  
this base, see page 28 or 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 28 for DCX210).  
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

usual, then press  
: the display shows Call Privacy. Press

Using Special Features  
Using Your Phone During a Power Failure  
Because it includes a corded handset, your phone 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.  
Changing the volume on the corded handset.  
Using 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 ringers of the  
base and all handsets at the same time.  
Do NoT DIsTurb  
With the phone in standby, press and hold  
on the  
base. The phone automatically turns on the answering system and  
shows Do Not Disturb in the display on all stations.  
Do NoT DIsTurb  
again.  
To cancel, press  
If you turn the answering system off while DND is on, the phone  
turns off DND along with the answering system.  
Using Call Block  
If you subscribe to Caller ID, you can save phone numbers to the call  
block list. When a call comes in, the phone compares the received  
phone number to the numbers on the call block list. If the phone  
number is on the list, the phone replaces the caller's name with Call  
Blocked and disconnects the call. (The caller hears a reject tone.)  
The call block list holds 20 entries, and all stations share the same  
list. You can add entries through the Call Blocking menu, by selecting  
Add Call Block in the CID menu, or by blocking incoming calls. (Only  
one station can edit the call block list at a time.)  
Blocking incoming calls  
When the phone rings, wait until the display shows the Caller ID  
information (usually after the second ring). If you want to block the

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, and the  
new message light (at the top of the handset) blinks.  
Resetting the voice message indicator  
If the voice message icon remains after you check  
your messages, you can reset it. From the base, open the menu and  
select VMWI Reset. Select Yes to reset the indicator.

Noise or Static On The Line  
Interference is the most common  
cause of noise or static on a  
cordless phone. Here are some  
common sources of interference:  
Do you use a T-Coil hearing aid?  
If you have a hearing aid  
equipped with a telecoil (T-coil)  
feature, the interaction between  
the hearing aid & digital cordless  
phones can cause noise in the  
handset. If you have a T-coil  
hearing aid & you have problems  
with noise on the line, try turning  
on T-coil mode. Open the menu.  
Select Handset Setup, then  
electrical appliances, especially  
microwave ovens  
computer equipment, especially  
wireless LAN equipment and  
DSL modems  
select T-coil  
.
radio-based wireless devices,  
such as room monitors,  
Using T-coil mode can shorten  
the handset’s talk time; make  
sure to watch the battery status  
and keep the battery charged.  
wireless controllers, or wireless  
headphones or speakers  
large florescent light fixtures  
(especially if they give off a buzzing noise)  
other services that use your phone line, like alarm systems,  
intercom systems, or broadband Internet service  
Here are some hints for when the static is...  
on 1 handset or in 1 location:  
on all handsets or in all locations:  
-
Check nearby for one of the  
-
Check near the base for the source  
of interference.  
Try moving the base away from a  
suspected source, or turn off the  
source if possible.  
If the base has an adjustable  
antenna, try raising the antenna so  
it stands straight up.

compartment or vent openings on the base), follow these steps:

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.
