CHARGING THE BATTERY PACK  
M Initial battery charging  
Before connecting your the phone for the first time, fully charge the  
rechargeable battery pack for 15-20 hours without interruption.  
1. Place the handset on the base.  
2. Make sure that status LED lights.  
If the LED doesn’t light, be sure the AC  
adapter is plugged in and the handset  
makes good contact with the base  
charging contacts.  
M Charging optional battery packs  
The base of your phone is equipped with a compartment for charging  
an extra battery pack for use in your handset. You can obtain an  
extra battery pack from your authorized Uniden dealer.  
1. Position the battery pack so the contacts are face up.  
Please visit your  
authorized Uniden dealer  
to obtain an extra battery  
pack or contact the  
Uniden Parts Department  
at (800) 554-3988. Hours  
are from 8:00 a.m. to  
5:00 p.m. Central  
2. Slide the battery pack into  
the charging compartment until  
it locks into place.  
Standard Time, Monday  
through Friday.  
3. Charge the battery for 24 hours. When charging is complete, lift the  
latch to remove the battery pack. To install the charged battery into the  
handset, see INSTALLING THE HANDSET BATTERY PACK, page 10.  
In the event of a power failure, your spare battery

can still use your phone.

M Low battery indicator  
When the battery pack is very low and needs  
to be charged, the phone is programmed to  
eliminate some functions to save power. If the  
phone is not in use, Low Battery flashes.  
Low Battery  
If the phone is in use, Low Battery flashes and the handset beeps.  
All rechargeable nickel-cadmium batteries  
develop a “memory effect”. The memory effect  
gradually reduces your talk and standby time.  
M To avoid Memory Effect  
On a monthly basis, use the phone until the Low Battery  
indicator flashes on the handset. Then charge the battery for  
15-20 hours.  
With normal usage, your battery should last about one year.  
CLEANING THE BATTERY CONTACTS  
To maintain a good charge, clean all charging contacts on the handset  
and base about once a month. Use a pencil eraser or other contact  
cleaner. DO NOT use liquids or solvents; you may damage your phone.  
SETTING THE PULSE/TONE SWITCH  
Be sure the PULSE/TONE  
switch is the TONE position unless your  
local phone system uses pulse dialing.  
Most phone systems use  
tone dialing. Check with  
your local phone  
company if you’re not  
sure whether your  
system is tone or pulse.

handset and base share this code. This code is randomly set each time  
you place the handset in the base. If the phone experiences a power  
failure, you must reset the digital security code by placing the handset  
in the base.  
Keep headset wire away  
from handset and  
base antennas.  
M To reset the digital security code

without the area code.  
You may use the < and >

numbers when  
programming the area  
code.  
If you are programming numbers within your area code that  
require all ten digits to be dialed, it is recommended that you do  
not program this feature.
