Voice Scramble protects your privacy by

changed, making it difficult or impossible for someone to receive and understand your phone calls.
AutoTalk™ allows you to answer a call by just removing the Handset from the Base so you don’t have to
waste time pushing buttons or flipping switches. AutoStandby™ allows you to hang up by simply return-
ing the Handset to the Base.
The UltraClear Plus innovative technology, together with multiple different channels, virtually eliminates
background noise and provides you with the best possible reception during all of your conversations.
To protect you against misbilled calls which might result from your phone being activated by other equip-
ment, Random Code™ digital security automatically selects one of 65 thousand digital security codes for
the Handset and Base Units. Also, the AutoSecure™ feature electronically locks your phone when the
Handset is in the Base.

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:
Caution:
Please do not attempt to unplug any appliance during an electrical storm.
Changes or modifications to this product not expressly approved by Uniden, or
operation of this product in any way other than as detailed by this Operating Guide,
could void your authority to operate this product.
Range
Your new phone is designed to achieve the maximum possible range by transmitting and receiving
according to the highest specifications. 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 fac-
tors 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
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.
Radio Interference
Radio interference may occasionally cause buzzing and humming in your cordless Handset, or clicking
noises in the Base Unit. This interference is caused by external sources such as TV, refrigerator, vacu-
um cleaner, fluorescent lighting or electrical storm. Your unit is NOT DEFECTIVE. If these noises contin-
ue 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, press the channel key to select a channel that provides the
clearest communication.
Finally, it should be noted that some cordless telephones operate at frequencies that may cause interfer-
ence to nearby TVs and VCRs. To minimize or prevent such interference, the base of the cordless tele-
phone 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.
More Than One Cordless Telephone
If you want to use more than one cordless telephone in your home, they must operate on different chan-
nels. 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 cord-
less 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
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 power outlet.
•
Keep the Base Unit 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 Unit antenna.
The Base Unit can be placed on a desk or tabletop or wall mounted on the wall plate.
If you decide to mount your phone on the wall, make sure to change the Handset Retainer so that the
tab which holds the Handset faces up (see page ? for more information).
•
You should charge your new phone for 15-20 hours before completing the installation or using
the Handset.
Telephone Line Outlets:
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.
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 Unit
The DX834 phone requires an uninterupted AC outlet, and the included AC adapter. To relieve strain on
the DC plug when the phone is placed on a desk or table, connect the adapter as shown below.
Wrap the power cord around the convenient notch on the bottom.
Important: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.

pipes or other items behind the mounting location
that could cause a hazard when inserting screws
into the wall.

porting the weight of the Base Unit and Handset.
* Use #10 screws with anchoring devices suitable
for the wall material where the Base Unit will be
placed.

Cleaning the Battery Contacts
To maintain a good charge, it is important to clean all charging contacts on the Handset and Base Unit
about once a month. Use a pencil eraser or other contact cleaner. Do not use any liquids or solvents.
Charging the Battery Pack
Initial Battery Charging
The rechargeable Nickel-Cadmium battery pack must be fully charged before using your phone for the
first time. We recommend that the battery pack charge for approximately 15-20 hours, without interrup-
tion, before plugging the phone into your new phone.
1. Place the Handset on the Base Unit. Either
place the Handset with ear piece in the cradle
- OR -
Place the Handset in the cradle with it standing on
end (desk mount only).
Note: Make sure to change the Handset Retainer
before hanging up the phone (wall mounted bases).
Battery Memory Effect
Rechargeable batteries can develop a “memory” (reduced charge capacity) caused by repeated charge
and discharge cycles. The battery life will seem to be shorter everytime you use the unit.
To Avoid this Memory Effect
At least once a month, operate the unit until the “Battery Low” indicator appears. Then recharge the bat-
tery for a full 15-20 hours. Avoid putting the Handset back in the base after using the phone for a short
time. This could cause “topping off” the charge. Also, do not charge the Rechargeable Battery for extend-
ed period of time.
